***** To join INSNA, visit http://www.insna.org ***** Hi, My method called SCAN and extension DISSECT can be used for identifying communities using cohesive subgroups, centrality and similarity. Chin A, Chignell M (2008) Automatic detection of cohesive subgroups within social hypertext: A heuristic approach. New Review of Hypermedia and Multimedia 14(1):121–143 Chin, A., Chignell, M. DISSECT: Data-Intensive Socially Similar Evolving Community Tracker. In Computational Social Network Analysis: Trends, Tools, and Research Advances (Ed. Ajith Abraham, Aboul-Ella Hassanien, and Vaclav Snasel), London: Springer-Verlag London Limited, 2010, 81-106. Hope that helps.
