INCVCommunityDetection: Inductive Node-Splitting Cross-Validation for Community Detection

Implements Inductive Node-Splitting Cross-Validation (INCV) for selecting the number of communities in stochastic block models. Provides f-fold and random-split node-level cross-validation, along with competing methods including CROISSANT, Edge Cross-Validation (ECV), and Node Cross-Validation (NCV). Supports both SBM and Degree-Corrected Block Models (DCBM), with multiple loss functions (L2, binomial deviance, AUC). Includes network simulation utilities for SBM, RDPG, and latent space models.
