Networks¶
Networks are a set of nodes and edges
Examples include social networks, biological, edemiology, communication, financial, etc...
The netwroks can show <> two way or -- one way relationships
Undirected relationships have no direction while directed do.
Weighted netwroks are where edges have values while in unweighted they are equal
Path - a sequence of nodes and lines where they are all disticnt
Shortest path - shortest possible path between 2 nodes
Rechability - if there is a path b/w nodes
Grodesic - shortest possible path between 2 nodes
Degrees of seperation - length of shortest path
Bipartite netwrok - netwrok divisble into 2 distinct sets
- Node size - reresents the importance of a node in a visualization
- edge thickness - represent strength of node connection in a visualization
- Node and adge color - distinguishes different nodes or groups in a visualization
- graph layout arrangement of nodes and edged. Force-directed, circular, or hierarchial in a visualization
- Networks can UNCOVER HIDDEN PATTERNS, IDENTIFY KEY PLAYER, OPTIMIZE SYSTEMS, TRACK SPREAD OF INFO OR DISEASES
