Lancichinetti–Fortunato–Radicchi benchmark
Algorithm / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Lancichinetti–Fortunato–Radicchi benchmark is an algorithm that generates benchmark networks (artificial networks that resemble real-world networks). They have a priori known communities and are used to compare different community detection methods.[1] The advantage of the benchmark over other methods is that it accounts for the heterogeneity in the distributions of node degrees and of community sizes.[2]
