Abstract:In recent years, the detection of communities in discrete-time temporal networks under dynamic stochastic block models has garnered significant attention. These models combine static stochastic block models with Markov chains of community variables, which depict the evolution of these variables. However, fitting a dynamic stochastic block model by maximizing its likelihood function is a challenging task, especially for large-scale networks, as community variables are both potential and dynamic. This method offers advantages in computational efficiency and accuracy of community detection, while also providing a solid theoretical guarantee of convergence and consistency. Furthermore, we extend the dPPL method to handle discrete-time dynamic networks with degree heterogeneity. Finally, through extensive simulation results and real data analyses, we demonstrate the practicality and advantages of the proposed methods.
