LOSP_Plus

These codes are for our paper "Krylov Subspace Approximation for Local Community Detection in Large Networks"

Requirements

Before compiling codes, the following software should be installed in your system.

• Matlab
• gcc (for Linux and Mac) or Microsoft Visual Studio (for Windows)

Datasets Information

• SNAP datasets (available at http://snap.stanford.edu/data/)
• Biology datasets (available at http://cb.csail.mit.edu/cb/mna/isobase/)
• LFR benchmark graphs (available at http://sites.google.com/site/santofortunato/inthepress2/)

Example dataset

• Amazon dataset (available at http://snap.stanford.edu/data/com-Amazon.html)
• nodes: 334863, edges: 925872
• nodes are products, edges are co-purchase relationships
• top 5000 communities with ground truth size >= 3

How to run LOSP_Plus algorithm

$ cd LOSP_Plus_codes
$ matlab 
$ mex -largeArrayDims GetLocalCond.c   % compile the mex file 
$ LOSP_Plus(WalkMode,d,k,alpha,TruncateMode,beta) 

Command Options for LOSP_Plus algorithm:

WalkMode: 1: standard, 2: light lazy, 3: lazy, 4: personalized (default: 2)

d: dimension of local spectral subspace (default: 2)

k: number of random walk steps (default: 3)

alpha: a parameter controls random walk diffusion (default: 1)

TruncateMode: 1: truncation by truth size, 2: truncation by local minimal conductance (default: 2)

beta: a parameter controls local minimal conductance (default: 1.02)
