multiNetX v2.3

multiNetX is a python package for the manipulation and visualization of multilayer networks. The core of this package is a MultilayerGraph, a class that inherits all properties from networkx.Graph().

This allows for:

Creating networks with weighted or unweighted links (only undirected networks are supported in this version)
Analysing the spectral properties of adjacency or Laplacian matrices
Visualizing dynamical processes by coloring the nodes and links accordingly

How to install multiNetX

You have to execute the following command in your terminal:

pip install git+https://github.com/nkoub/multinetx.git

Clone the repository of multinetx into your system:
```
git clone https://github.com/nkoub/multinetx.git
```
Enter in the multinetx directory:
```
cd multinetx
```
and then simply write:
```
pip install .
```

How to use multiNetX

Import standard libraries for numerics

import numpy as np

Import the package MultiNetX

import multinetx as mx

Create a multiplex 1st way

Create three Erd"os- R'enyi networks with N nodes for each layer

N = 5
g1 = mx.generators.erdos_renyi_graph(N,0.5,seed=218)
g2 = mx.generators.erdos_renyi_graph(N,0.6,seed=211)
g3 = mx.generators.erdos_renyi_graph(N,0.7,seed=208)

Create an 3Nx3N lil sparse matrix. It will be used to describe the layers interconnection

adj_block = mx.lil_matrix(np.zeros((N*3,N*3)))

Define the type of interconnection among the layers (here we use identity matrices thus connecting one-to-one the nodes among layers)

adj_block[0:  N,  N:2*N] = np.identity(N)    # L_12
adj_block[0:  N,2*N:3*N] = np.identity(N)    # L_13
adj_block[N:2*N,2*N:3*N] = np.identity(N)    # L_23
    
# use symmetric inter-adjacency matrix
adj_block += adj_block.T

Create an instance of the MultilayerGraph class

mg = mx.MultilayerGraph(list_of_layers=[g1,g2,g3],
                        inter_adjacency_matrix=adj_block)

Weights can be added to the edges

mg.set_edges_weights(intra_layer_edges_weight=2,
                     inter_layer_edges_weight=3)

Create a multiplex 2nd way

mg = mx.MultilayerGraph()

Add layers

mg.add_layer(mx.generators.erdos_renyi_graph(N,0.5,seed=218))
mg.add_layer(mx.generators.erdos_renyi_graph(N,0.6,seed=211))
mg.add_layer(mx.generators.erdos_renyi_graph(N,0.7,seed=208))

Create an instance of the MultilayerGraph class

mg.layers_interconnect(inter_adjacency_matrix=adj_block)

Weights can be added to the edges

mg.set_edges_weights(intra_layer_edges_weight=2,
                     inter_layer_edges_weight=3)

The object mg inherits all properties from Graph of networkX, so that we can calculate adjacency or Laplacian matrices, their eigenvalues, etc.

adj_block[0:  N,  N:2*N] = np.identity(N)    # L_12

adj_block[0  :  N ,   N:2*N] = np.identity(N)   # L_12
adj_block[0  :  N , 2*N:3*N] = np.random.poisson(0.005,size=(N,N))   # L_13

adj_block[3*N:4*N , 2*N:3*N] = np.random.poisson(0.008,size=(N,N))   # L_14
adj_block += adj_block.T
adj_block[adj_block>1] = 1

Create an instance of the MultilayerGraph class
