Social Event Detection in Massive Mobile Phone Data Using Probabilistic Location. In addition to these theoretical contributions, the thesis also contains an empirical analysis of the effect of trading communities on international conflict, and how communities form in a citation network with positive and negative links. Vincent Traag, Arnaud Browet, Francesco Calabrese, Frdric Morlot. This has intriguing connections to the evolution of cooperation, suggesting that for cooperation to emerge, groups often split in two opposing factions.
Besides how to incorporate this in community detection, it also examines the dynamics of such negative links, inspired by a sociological theory known as social balance.
One aspect that is often ignored in this field is treated here: links can also be negative, as in war or conflict. Moreover, it discusses how to asses whether communities can occur by chance or not. Remarkably, only few methods possess this desirable property, and this thesis puts forward one such method. We show that this algorithm has a major defect that largely went. One of the most popular algorithms for uncovering community structure is the so-called Louvain algorithm.
