Researchers have developed a new method for community detection in multilayer networks, which models interactions between entities across different contexts. This approach utilizes a joint nonnegative symmetric matrix trifactorization to approximate each graph, enforcing constraints for disjoint and shared communities across layers while allowing for layer-specific connectivity and node degrees. The proposed method aims to capture both local and global structural variations and has demonstrated reliable community detection capabilities in experiments, outperforming existing state-of-the-art methods that often rely on more restrictive assumptions.
