Abstract

Community detection is an important task in social network analysis. A game theory-based community detection system (CDSG) is developed in this demonstration. CDSG uses cooperative and non-cooperative game theory to detect communities. The combination of cooperative and non-cooperative game makes utilities of groups and individuals can be taken into account simultaneously and decreases the computational cost, thus CDSG can detect overlapping communities with high accuracy and efficiency, such that it can effectively help users in analyzing and exploring complex networks.
