Sammanfattning	Weighted temporal network analysis studies networks whose edges carry numerical weights — representing interaction strength, frequency, or intensity — and whose structure changes over time. It combines the time-varying perspective of temporal network analysis with the quantitative precision of weighted graph metrics, revealing not only when connections exist but how strong they are at each moment.	Weighted community detection identifies densely connected groups — communities — in networks where edges carry numeric strengths (weights). By incorporating edge weights into the modularity function, it reveals structure that binary adjacency alone would miss: two nodes connected by a strong tie are treated as more similar than two nodes linked by a weak one. The Louvain algorithm is the dominant practical implementation.
