What is kcut?

Kcut is a clustering algorithm that is commonly used for finding communities or groups in complex networks. The algorithm partitions the original network into disjoint clusters or communities by recursively dividing the network into smaller subgraphs until a stopping criteria is reached. The stopping criteria can be a fixed number of clusters or a desired level of modularity. Kcut has been used in a variety of applications including social network analysis, bioinformatics, and image segmentation. However, it can be computationally expensive for large networks, and determining the optimal number of clusters can be challenging.
