Structural correlation between communities and core-periphery structures in social networks: Evidence from Twitter data

作者：

Highlights：

• Communities and core-periphery structures are two common meso‑scale structures.

• The two structures can both attribute to asymmetric interactions of actors.

• It is proposed that the two structures can be regarded as the same.

• Empirical results indicate that a community has a core-periphery structure.
