DIAZ MATOS, Armando; GIL PONS, Reynaldo  and  ORTEGA BUENO, Reynier. Prediction of community evolution in social networks. Rev cuba cienc informat [online]. 2018, vol.12, n.4, pp. 115-127. ISSN 2227-1899.

Nowadays, the fast growth of Social Networks have caused that many researchers have taken the challenge of analyzing and modelling their behavior. There are many tasks in Social Networks Analysis. One of the most important is the prediction of the behavior of communities that form the network. This last task is now analyzed with a new perspective where the behavior of the community is defined by its shape. We propose a method for predicting the evolution of communities based on frequent subgraphs. Then we compare the new way of describing the communities with a recent approach in the literature, obtaining similar results.

Keywords : community evolution; dynamic social network analysis; prediction group evolution; social network analysis.
