Community structure is an important property of complex networks, in which network nodes are tightly split into different groups. In this paper, a new overlapping community detection algorithm based on line graph is proposed. Spectral analysis based on Normal Laplace Matrix of line graph is introduced. We not only make the spectral clustering to be an overlapping algorithm but also define a new similarity between edges by spectral analysis. We test our method on three-community network and Zachary karate club network. The experimental result shows that our method can detect community structure and overlapping nodes effectively. It is worth to note that our method is against undirected and unweighted graphs.
