Description

The Youtube social network and ground-truth communities dataset, part of the Stanford Network Analysis Project (SNAP), captures a social network provided from the video-sharing site YouTube: users form friendships and can create groups which other users join, with each user-defined group treated as a ground-truth community. It includes the largest connected component of the friendship network, ground-truth community assignments (connected components per group with at least 3 nodes), and the top 5,000 highest-quality communities, with 1,134,890 nodes, 2,987,624 edges, an average clustering coefficient of 0.0808, a diameter of 20, and 8,385 communities with an average size of 13.50.
