  • Abstract
    Community structure is a common nature which most practical networks have. Community detecting has great significance for describing the network structure characters. In this paper, an algorithm is proposed which combines the idea of optimized modular function Q, spectral relaxation and fuzzy c-mean clustering methods in order to uncover the overlapping community structure and the Zachary´s karate club network is given as demonstration.
