Abstract

Louvain algorithm is known to be fast to deliver good results in detecting communities of big graphs. This paper further speeds up Louvain algorithm by restricting the internal search rules and early pruning the non-promising candidates. Experimental results of the modified algorithm on various sized data show outstanding speedups of up to 40.5 and 4.7 times for weighted graphs and unweighted graphs, respectively.
