Abstract :
Detecting communities in complex networks is beneficial for understanding the network structure and analyzing the network properties. Previous studies mainly focus on unweighted network. This paper proposes a a novel method based on fuzzy clustering to detect community structure in weighted networks. At last, we also evaluate our method on a famous real-world network of Zachary´s karate club.
