Dynamic Modularity Analysis

Dynamic modularity analysis extends the classical modularity framework to networks that evolve over time, detecting communities across a sequence of network snapshots while penalizing unnecessary community changes between time steps. It identifies cohesive groups and tracks how they form, merge, split, or dissolve, giving researchers a principled view of structural change in longitudinal network data.
