label.propagation.community: Finding communities based on propagating labels

In igraph: Network Analysis and Visualization

Finding communities based on propagating labels

Description

label.propagation.community() was renamed to cluster_label_prop() to create a more consistent API.

Usage

label.propagation.community(
  graph,
  weights = NULL,
  ...,
  mode = c("out", "in", "all"),
  initial = NULL,
  fixed = NULL
)

Arguments

graph	The input graph. Note that the algorithm wsa originally defined for undirected graphs. You are advised to set ‘mode’ to all if you pass a directed graph here to treat it as undirected.
weights	The weights of the edges. It must be a positive numeric vector, NULL or NA. If it is NULL and the input graph has a ‘weight’ edge attribute, then that attribute will be used. If NULL and no such attribute is present, then the edges will have equal weights. Set this to NA if the graph was a ‘weight’ edge attribute, but you don't want to use it for community detection. A larger edge weight means a stronger connection for this function.
...	These dots are for future extensions and must be empty.
mode	Logical, whether to consider edge directions for the label propagation, and if so, in which direction the labels should propagate. Ignored for undirected graphs. "all" means to ignore edge directions (even in directed graphs). "out" means to propagate labels along the natural direction of the edges. "in" means to propagate labels backwards (i.e. from head to tail).
initial	The initial state. If NULL, every vertex will have a different label at the beginning. Otherwise it must be a vector with an entry for each vertex. Non-negative values denote different labels, negative entries denote vertices without labels.
fixed	Logical vector denoting which labels are fixed. Of course this makes sense only if you provided an initial state, otherwise this element will be ignored. Also note that vertices without labels cannot be fixed.
