Discovering Hidden Groups in Communication Networks

We describe models and efficient algorithms for detecting groups (communities) functioning in communication networks which attempt to hide their functionality – hidden groups. Our results reveal the properties of the background network activity that make detection of the hidden group easy, as well as those that make it difficult.
