As an example of how to use our data in your own research, you can access the concept and social graphs using the following example. It assumes that you have placed the data in a default "graph_data" folder (though this can be changed by passing an argument into load_challenge):
from graph2 import *
challenge = load_challenge(7)
# The concept graph is a NetworkX object with concepts as nodes
# and "built upon" citations as directed edges
challenge.concept_graph
# The social graph is a NetworkX object with users as nodes
# and "communication" actions as directed edges
challenge.social_graph
# The link attribute points you to the original challenge site
