Резюме	Multilayer community detection identifies groups of nodes that are densely connected across multiple types of relationships simultaneously. By coupling layers of a network — such as friendship, advice, and collaboration ties — it finds communities that are coherent not just within one relation type but across all of them, revealing structure that single-layer analysis would miss.	Modularity analysis is a network science method, formalized by Newman and Girvan in 2004, that detects community structure in graphs by measuring whether edges are more concentrated within groups than expected by chance. Its scalar quality index Q guides algorithms that partition nodes into cohesive clusters, making it the most widely adopted framework for community detection in social, biological, and technological networks.
