title: 'dynamicmultiplex: Tracking Communities in Changing Temporal Networks'
version: 1.4.0
doi: 10.32614/CRAN.package.dynamicmultiplex
abstract: Tools for temporal networks that change over time, where nodes enter and
  leave, groups form, split, merge and dissolve, and periods differ in size. The temporal
  fitters track nodes and communities across periods. A community keeps one identifier
  while it persists, and a newly formed group receives a new one. Two-stage fitters
  run Louvain or Leiden community detection in each period and link communities in
  linked periods by Jaccard similarity, the overlap coefficient or node-strength weighted
  variants. The 'layer_links' argument sets which periods are directly linked, adjacent
  periods only by default. By default all periods are fitted jointly, so later periods
  can change earlier labels, and tracking = 'filtered' prevents this. Multislice modularity
  (Mucha et al. 2010) <https://doi.org/10.1126/science.1184819> and Hungarian matching
  are included as comparison methods, and a bootstrap stability score helps choose
  between the two-stage and multislice approaches.
