Abstract
Community search aims at finding a meaningful community that contains the query node and also maximizes (minimizes) a goodness metric, which has attracted a lot of attention in recent years. However, most of existing metric-based algorithms either tend to include the irrelevant subgraphs in the identified community or have computational bottleneck. Contrary to the user-defined metric algorithm, how can we search the natural community that the query node belongs to? In this paper, we propose a novel community search algorithm based on the concept of k-hop and local distance dynamics model, which can natural capture a community that contains the query node. Extensive experiments on large real-world networks with ground-truth demonstrate the effectiveness and efficiency of our community search algorithm and has good performance compared to state-of-the-art algorithm.
