תקציר	Bayesian community detection infers latent group structure in networks by treating community membership as unobserved variables and using Bayesian inference — typically via Markov chain Monte Carlo or variational methods — to compute a posterior distribution over all plausible partitions. Unlike modularity optimisation, it selects the number of communities from data and provides principled uncertainty estimates for every node assignment.	The Stochastic Block Model (SBM), introduced by Holland, Laskey and Leinhardt (1983), is a probabilistic generative model for graphs that assigns nodes to latent blocks and parametrically estimates the connection probabilities between blocks. It is the foundational approach for community detection, core-periphery identification, and hierarchical structure discovery in network analysis.
