Abstract
We present PyGenStability, a general-use Python software package that provides a suite of analysis and visualisation tools for unsupervised multiscale community detection in graphs. PyGenStability finds optimized partitions of a graph at different levels of resolution by maximizing the generalized Markov Stability quality function with the Louvain or Leiden algorithms. The package includes automatic detection of robust graph partitions and allows the flexibility to choose quality functions for weighted undirected, directed and signed graphs, and to include other user-defined quality functions.
期刊介绍:
As a scientific journal, ACM Transactions on Mathematical Software (TOMS) documents the theoretical underpinnings of numeric, symbolic, algebraic, and geometric computing applications. It focuses on analysis and construction of algorithms and programs, and the interaction of programs and architecture. Algorithms documented in TOMS are available as the Collected Algorithms of the ACM at calgo.acm.org.
