Community detection plays an important role in social networks, since it can help to naturally divide the network into smaller parts so as to simplify network analysis. However, on the other hand, it arises the concern that individual information may be over-mined, and the concept community deception thus is proposed to protect individual privacy on social networks. Here, we introduce and formalize the problem of community detection attack and develop efficient strategies to attack community detection algorithms by rewiring a small number of connections, leading to individual privacy protection. In particular, we first give two heuristic attack strategies, i.e., Community Detection Attack (CDA) and Degree Based Attack (DBA), as baselines, utilizing the information of detected community structure and node degree, respectively. And then we propose a Genetic Algorithm (GA) based Q-Attack, where the modularity Q is used to design the fitness function. We launch community detection attack based on the above three strategies against three modularity based community detection algorithms on two social networks. By comparison, our Q-Attack method achieves much better attack effects than CDA and DBA, in terms of the larger reduction of both modularity Q and Normalized Mutual Information (NMI). Besides, we find that the adversarial networks obtained by Q-Attack on a specific community detection algorithm can be still effective on others, no matter whether they are modularity based or not, indicating its strong transferability.

Community detection, aiming to group nodes based on their connections, plays an important role in network analysis, since communities, treated as meta-nodes, allow us to create a large-scale map of a network to simplify its analysis. However, for pri
vacy reasons, we may want to prevent communities from being discovered in certain cases, leading to the topics on community deception. In this paper, we formalize this community detection attack problem in three scales, including global attack (macroscale), target community attack (mesoscale) and target node attack (microscale). We treat this as an optimization problem and further propose a novel Evolutionary Perturbation Attack (EPA) method, where we generate adversarial networks to realize the community detection attack. Numerical experiments validate that our EPA can successfully attack network community algorithms in all three scales, i.e., hide target nodes or communities and further disturb the community structure of the whole network by only changing a small fraction of links. By comparison, our EPA behaves better than a number of baseline attack methods on six synthetic networks and three real-world networks. More interestingly, although our EPA is based on the louvain algorithm, it is also effective on attacking other community detection algorithms, validating its good transferability.
We apply spectral clustering and multislice modularity optimization to a Los Angeles Police Department field interview card data set. To detect communities (i.e., cohesive groups of vertices), we use both geographic and social information about stops
involving street gang members in the LAPD district of Hollenbeck. We then compare the algorithmically detected communities with known gang identifications and argue that discrepancies are due to sparsity of social connections in the data as well as complex underlying sociological factors that blur distinctions between communities.
In the social media, there are a large amount of potential zombie accounts which may has negative impact on the public opinion. In tradition, PageRank algorithm is used to detect zombie accounts. However, problems such as it requires a large RAM to s
tore adjacent matrix or adjacent list and the value of importance may approximately to zero for large graph exist. To solve the first problem, since the structure of social media makes the graph divisible, we conducted a community detection algorithm Louvain to decompose the whole graph into 1,002 subgraphs. The modularity of 0.58 shows the result is effective. To solve the second problem, we performed the uneven assignation PageRank algorithm to calculate the importance of node in each community. Then, a threshold is set to distinguish the zombie account and normal accounts. The result shows that about 20% accounts in the dataset are zombie accounts and they center in tier-one cities in China such as Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou. In the future, a classification algorithm with semi-supervised learning can be used to detect zombie accounts.
With the rapid development of Internet technology, online social networks (OSNs) have got fast development and become increasingly popular. Meanwhile, the research works across multiple social networks attract more and more attention from researchers
, and community detection is an important one across OSNs for online security problems, such as the user behavior analysis and abnormal community discovery. In this paper, a community detection method is proposed across multiple social networks based on overlapping users. First, the concept of overlapping users is defined, then an algorithm CMN NMF is designed to discover the stub communities from overlapping users based on the social relevance. After that, we extend each stub community in different social networks by adding the users with strong similarity, and in the end different communities are excavated out across networks. Experimental results show the advantage on effectiveness of our method over other methods under real data sets.
Heterogeneous networks are networks consisting of different types of nodes and multiple types of edges linking such nodes. While community detection has been extensively developed as a useful technique for analyzing networks that contain only one typ
e of nodes, very few community detection techniques have been developed for heterogeneous networks. In this paper, we propose a modularity based community detection framework for heterogeneous networks. Unlike existing methods, the proposed approach has the flexibility to treat the number of communities as an unknown quantity. We describe a Louvain type maximization method for finding the community structure that maximizes the modularity function. Our simulation results show the advantages of the proposed method over existing methods. Moreover, the proposed modularity function is shown to be consistent under a heterogeneous stochastic blockmodel framework. Analyses of the DBLP four-area dataset and a MovieLens dataset demonstrate the usefulness of the proposed method.
