Karate Club Documentation

Karate Club is an unsupervised machine learning extension library for NetworkX. It builds on other open source linear algebra, machine learning, and graph signal processing libraries such as Numpy, Scipy, Gensim, PyGSP, and Scikit-Learn. Karate Club consists of state-of-the-art methods to do unsupervised learning on graph structured data. To put it simply it is a Swiss Army knife for small-scale graph mining research. First, it provides network embedding techniques at the node and graph level. Second, it includes a variety of overlapping and non-overlapping community detection methods. Implemented methods cover a wide range of network science (NetSci, Complenet), data mining (ICDM, CIKM, KDD), artificial intelligence (AAAI, IJCAI) and machine learning (NeurIPS, ICML, ICLR) conferences, workshops, and pieces from prominent journals.
