networkx.algorithms.community.label_propagation.label_propagation_communities

label_propagation_communities(G)[source]

Generates community sets determined by label propagation

Finds communities in G using a semi-synchronous label propagation method[1]_. This method combines the advantages of both the synchronous and asynchronous models. Not implemented for directed graphs.

Parameters

G (graph) – An undirected NetworkX graph.

Yields

communities (generator) – Yields sets of the nodes in each community.

Raises

NetworkXNotImplemented – If the graph is directed
