We study the community detection problem on a Gaussian mixture model, in which (1) vertices are divided into $k\geq 2$ distinct communities that are not necessarily equally-sized; (2) the Gaussian perturbations for different entries in the observation matrix are not necessarily independent or identically distributed. We prove necessary and sufficient conditions for the exact recovery of the maximum likelihood estimation (MLE), and discuss the cases when these necessary and sufficient conditions give sharp threshold. Applications include the community detection on a graph where the Gaussian perturbations of observations on each edge is the sum of i.i.d.~Gaussian random variables on its end vertices, in which we explicitly obtain the threshold for the exact recovery of the MLE.

We study the community detection problem on a Gaussian mixture model, in which vertices are divided into $k\geq 2$ distinct communities. The major difference in our model is that the intensities for Gaussian perturbations are different for different entries in the observation matrix, and we do not assume that every community has the same number of vertices. We explicitly find the threshold for the exact recovery of the maximum likelihood estimation. Applications include the community detection on hypergraphs.
