Modularity Centrality
Definition
The modularity centrality (CM) is based on the idea that nodes are tied to their assigned communities
by the “strength” which shows the importance of nodes belonging to their communities, Q value is
expressed as
where p is non-overlapping community numbers, βj is jth eigenvalue of the modularity matrix, uj is
eigenvector corresponding to βj , and xk is kth row vector of assignment matrix. Let β = max(|βj|),
if ui is the magnitude of the ith elements of eigenvector uj corresponding to β. Then the modularity
centrality of node i is defined as:
