watch-complexity's Introduction

Watch Complexity ·

WatchComplexity is a package to understand and analyze complex networks and more in general complex data. It is a collection of clustering techniques inspired by social science and communication theories.

Algorithms

The tool provides the following algorithms.

Ranked influence typology
Detect the type of influence that each node holds within a network.
Network Similarity
Measures the similarity between different networks.

Getting started

Install

npm install watch-complexity

How to use it

const watchcomplexity = require('watch-complexity');

Example of use:

// The list of edges
const edges = [
  {from: "Napoleon", to: "Myriel", weight: 1},
  {from: "Mme.Magloire", to: "Myriel", weight: 10},
  {...}
];
// Measure the influence score and detect the influence roles
const nodes = watchcomplexity.influence.typology(edges);

That will return as result:
