In order to study the deformation characteristics of reverse slope, this paper took the slope of Xiaodongcao as the research object, applied the Louvain community detection algorithm, considered the in uence of reservoir water level change, partitioned the slope deformation characteristics. The deformation characteristic zoning result was superimposed with the slope displacement cloud map and three types of geological geometric characteristic factor zoning map obtained by ArcGIS. The results show that Community detection can quickly identify the closely connected part of slope network, and the speci c location of this part is affected by reservoir water. After the community detection result is superimposed with the displacement cloud map, the areas with large deformation and close connection in the slope can be identi ed. It is found that the community with severe deformation have at least 5% more displacement and up to 21% more displacement than that with slow deformation. In addition, the location of leader nodes can be identi ed, and the number of leader nodes does not exceed 20% of the total nodes in the community, and its average displacement is at least 10% more than that of ordinary nodes, up to 36%. After the community detection result is superimposed with the zoning map of slope grade, it can be concluded that the slope grade within the community with severe deformation is greater than 60°, indicating that the larger slope grade is more sensitive to the bank slope deformation.
