Measuring robustness of community structure in complex networks
The theory of community structure is a powerful tool for real networks, which
can simplify their topological and functional analysis considerably. However,
since community detection methods have random factors and real social networks
obtained from complex systems always contain error edges, evaluating the
robustness of community structure is an urgent and important task. In this
letter, we employ the critical threshold of resolution parameter in Hamiltonian
function, , to measure the robustness of a network. According to
spectral theory, a rigorous proof shows that the index we proposed is inversely
proportional to robustness of community structure. Furthermore, by utilizing
the co-evolution model, we provides a new efficient method for computing the
value of . The research can be applied to broad clustering problems
in network analysis and data mining due to its solid mathematical basis and
experimental effects.Comment: 6 pages, 4 figures. arXiv admin note: text overlap with

THE KINEMATICS CHAIN OF INSTEP KICKING OF SOCCER WITH UPPERBODY CONSTRAINED: A PILOT STUDY
The purpose of this study was to understand the kicking performance when the upperbody motion has been limited. One player in the college cup level A volunteered to participate in this study (Aged: 20 years, Height: 172 cm, Body mass: 65 kg). A VICON motion capture system (200 Hz) was used to capture the kicking motion. The participant was asked to kick the ball both using an arm swing and not using an arm swing. The Visual3D was used to calculate the segment velocity, angular velocity, and kinetic chain. The results indicated that kicking with arm swing had a greater ball and lower-extrimity segment velocity. The main effect for lower ball velocity during kicking without arm swing is the decreased angular velocity at the ankle joint. When arm motion has been limited, players should noticed that the ankle joint needs to follow through after foot-ball contact
