Abstract

Efficient community detection in a complex network is considered an interesting issue due to its vast applications in many prevailing areas such as biology, chemistry, linguistics, social sciences, and others. There are several algorithms available for network community detection. This studyproposed the Sigmoid Fish Swarm Optimization (SiFSO) algorithm to discover efficient network communities. Our proposed algorithm uses the sigmoid function for various fish moves in a swarm, including Prey, Follow, Swarm, and Free Move, for better movement and community detection. The proposed SiFSO algorithm's performance is tested against state-of-the-art particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithms in Q-modularity and normalized mutual information (NMI). The results showed that the proposed SiFSO algorithm is 0.0014% better in terms of Q-modularity and 0.1187% better in terms of NMI than the other selected algorithms.
