Abstract

Protein-protein interactions play a vital role in identifying the outcome of a vast majority of cellular mechanisms. But analyzing these complex data to identify community structures which can explain the activities of protein networks were always been a challenge. This paper reports the use of triangular modularity of protein network as an effective method to identify these community structures.

Keywords: Community Detection Protein-Protein Interaction Protein Networks Spectral Optimization
