Description
Summary:Community detection is an important topic for social network analysis and is also essential to understanding complex networks structure. In community detection, the goal is to determine the groups in which the group nodes are densely connected to each other. In this research, deep learning techniques have been used to control graph data with high dimensions, while presenting a comprehensive and integrated architecture of community recognition methods with deep learning. Community detection classic approaches are suitable for networks with low dimensions. Therefore, the reduction of complex network dimensions is counted as a significant topic in community detection. In this paper, in order to reveal the direct and indirect connections among nodes, first a new similarity matrix of network topology is built. Then, a stacked auto-encoder is designed to decrease dimensions based on unsupervised learning. In order to detect communities, various clustering algorithms are then tested and utilized. Evaluation of the proposed research model is performed by surveying various experiments on standard criteria and six real data sets of Karate, Dolphins, Football, Polbooks, Cora and Citeseer. The proposed method evaluation outcomes show a higher accuracy in the identification of communities in the football data set compared to the twelve proposed algorithms used in past researches, and show a significant improvement in other data sets compared to the thirteen algorithms.
