MotifCluster

motifcluster logo

A Julia package for motif-based spectral clustering of weighted directed networks.

Introduction

The MotifCluster package provides implementations of motif-based spectral clustering of weighted directed networks in Julia. These provide the capability for:

  • Building motif adjacency matrices
  • Sampling random weighted directed networks
  • Spectral embedding with motif adjacency matrices
  • Motif-based spectral clustering

The methods are all designed to run quickly on large sparse networks, and are easy to install and use. These methods are based on those described in [Underwood, Elliott and Cucuringu, 2020], which is available at arxiv:2004.01293.
