The application is designed to work with two networks that are expected to have common structure. For example, these could be a friendship network observed in two periods of time.
You can try and see how it works with the datasets we have in the selection: Investor network - before [crisis] and Investor network - during [crisis].
- Go to sigma-networks.herokuapp.com (loading the page may take a while)
- Select a dataset on the left and right side or upload your datasets in .json format. To use your dataset:
- See the .json template
- See the .ipynb notebook to learn how to convert your data to the desired .json format
- Click the
Importbutton to upload your file
- Select a node attribute to color the nodes and place the legend by dragging it
- Select an edge attribute to add weight to the edges
- If the networks are large run no-overlap algorithm to prevent the nodes from overlapping
- See statistics
- Highlight the common links and nodes to see the underlying structure of the networks
- Highlight the Maximum Common Induced Subgraph (MCIS) of the networks
Some features:
- Hover over a node to see its attributes
- Double click on a node will display its attributes in an infobox and highlight its first-order neighbors in both networks
- Click on an infobox to close it
Resetwill cancel the highlightClearbutton will remove the network- You can change the size of the left and right side by dragging the separating bar
- Use navigation icons to zoom in and out, and download the networks in svg
