Abstract
A system, method, and machine-readable storage medium for resolving a candidate community are provided. In some embodiments, a method includes obtaining a candidate community and a neighbor set for the candidate community, the neighbor set including zero or more stable communities. The method also includes resolving the candidate community as being a new stable community if the neighbor set is empty. The method further includes resolving the candidate community as being part of a matching stable community if a hash value of the candidate community matches a hash value of one or more stable communities included in the neighbor set. The method also includes resolving the candidate community as being a new stable community if an entropy value is greater than a threshold, the entropy value being based on the candidate community and the neighbor set.
