label_propagation_communities#

label_propagation_communities(G)[source]#

Generates community sets determined by label propagation

Finds communities in G using a semi-synchronous label propagation method [1]. This method combines the advantages of both the synchronous and asynchronous models. Not implemented for directed graphs.

Parameters:
Ggraph

An undirected NetworkX graph.

Returns:
communitiesiterable

A dict_values object that contains a set of nodes for each community.

Raises:
NetworkXNotImplemented

If the graph is directed
