Graph-tool
Lua error in Module:Infobox at line 314: malformed pattern (missing ']'). graph-tool is a Python module for manipulation and statistical analysis of graphs[disambiguation needed] (a.k.a. networks). The core data structures and algorithms of graph-tool are implemented in C++, making extensive use of metaprogramming, based heavily on the Boost Graph Library. This type of approach can confer a level of performance which is comparable (both in memory usage and computation time) to that of a pure C++ library, which can be several orders of magnitude better than pure Python.[1]
Furthermore, many algorithms are implemented in parallel using OpenMP, which provides increased performance on multi-core architectures.
Features
- Creation and manipulation of directed or undirected graphs.
- Association of arbitrary information to the vertices, edges or even the graph itself, by means of property maps.
- Filter vertices and/or edges "on the fly", such that they appear to have been removed.
- Support for dot, Graph Modelling Language and GraphML formats.
- Convenient and powerful graph drawing based on cairo or Graphviz.
- Support for typical statistical measurements: degree/property histogram, combined degree/property histogram, vertex-vertex correlations, assortativity, average vertex-vertex shortest path, etc.
- Support for several graph-theoretical algorithms: such as graph isomorphism, subgraph isomormism, minimum spanning tree, connected components, dominator tree, maximum flow, etc.
- Support for several centrality measures.
- Support for clustering coefficients, as well as network motif statistics and community structure detection.
- Generation of random graphs, with arbitrary degree distribution and correlations.
- Support for well-established network models: Price, Barabási-Albert, Geometric Networks, Multidimensional lattice graph, etc.
Suitabilty
Graph-tool can be used to work with very large graphs in a variety of contexts, including simulation of cellular tissue,[2] data mining,[3][4] analysis of social networks,[5][6] analysis of P2P systems,[7] large-scale modeling of agent-based systems,[8] study of academic Genealogy trees,[9] theoretical assessment and modeling of network clustering,[10] large-scale call graph analysis,[11][12] and analysis of the brain's Connectome.[13]
