\title{Community detection algorithm based on interacting fluids}
\usage{
cluster_fluid_communities(graph, no.of.communities)
}
\arguments{
\item{graph}{The input graph. The graph must be simple and connected.
Empty graphs are not supported as well as single vertex graphs.
Edge directions are ignored. Weights are not considered.}
\item{no.of.communities}{The number of communities to be found. Must be
greater than 0 and fewer than number of vertices in the graph.}
}
\value{
\code{cluster_fluid_communities()} returns a \code{\link[=communities]{communities()}}
object, please see the \code{\link[=communities]{communities()}} manual page for details.
}
\description{
The algorithm detects communities based on the simple idea of
several fluids interacting in a non-homogeneous environment
(the graph topology), expanding and contracting based on their
interaction and density.
