Parameters
|
|||
|
----------
|
|||
|
G : NetworkX graph
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
most_valuable_edge : function
|
|||
|
Function that takes a graph as input and outputs an edge. The
|
|||
|
edge returned by this function will be recomputed and removed at
|
|||
|
each iteration of the algorithm.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
If not specified, the edge with the highest
|
|||
|
:func:`networkx.edge_betweenness_centrality` will be used.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Returns
|
|||
|
-------
|
|||
|
iterator
|
|||
|
Iterator over tuples of sets of nodes in `G`. Each set of node
|
|||
|
is a community, each tuple is a sequence of communities at a
|
|||
|
particular level of the algorithm.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Examples
|
|||
|
--------
|
|||
|
To get the first pair of communities::
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
>>> G = nx.path_graph(10)
|
|||
|
>>> comp = girvan_newman(G)
|
|||
|
>>> tuple(sorted(c) for c in next(comp))
|
|||
|
([0, 1, 2, 3, 4], [5, 6, 7, 8, 9])
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
To get only the first *k* tuples of communities, use
|
|||
|
:func:`itertools.islice`::
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
>>> import itertools
|
|||
|
>>> G = nx.path_graph(8)
|
|||
|
>>> k = 2
|
|||
|
>>> comp = girvan_newman(G)
|
|||
|
>>> for communities in itertools.islice(comp, k):
|
|||
|
... print(tuple(sorted(c) for c in communities)) # doctest: +SKIP
|
|||
|
...
|
|||
|
([0, 1, 2, 3], [4, 5, 6, 7])
|
|||
|
([0, 1], [2, 3], [4, 5, 6, 7])
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
To stop getting tuples of communities once the number of communities
|
|||
|
is greater than *k*, use :func:`itertools.takewhile`::
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
>>> import itertools
|
|||
|
>>> G = nx.path_graph(8)
|
|||
|
>>> k = 4
|
|||
|
>>> comp = girvan_newman(G)
|
|||
|
>>> limited = itertools.takewhile(lambda c: len(c) <= k, comp)
|
|||
|
>>> for communities in limited:
|
|||
|
... print(tuple(sorted(c) for c in communities)) # doctest: +SKIP
|
|||
|
...
|
|||
|
([0, 1, 2, 3], [4, 5, 6, 7])
|
|||
|
([0, 1], [2, 3], [4, 5, 6, 7])
|
|||
|
([0, 1], [2, 3], [4, 5], [6, 7])
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
To just choose an edge to remove based on the weight::
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
>>> from operator import itemgetter
|
|||
|
>>> G = nx.path_graph(10)
|
|||
|
>>> edges = G.edges()
|
|||
|
>>> nx.set_edge_attributes(G, {(u, v): v for u, v in edges}, 'weight')
|
|||
|
>>> def heaviest(G):
|
|||
|
... u, v, w = max(G.edges(data='weight'), key=itemgetter(2))
|
|||
|
... return (u, v)
|
|||
|
...
|
|||
|
>>> comp = girvan_newman(G, most_valuable_edge=heaviest)
|
|||
|
>>> tuple(sorted(c) for c in next(comp))
|
|||
|
([0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8], [9])
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
To utilize edge weights when choosing an edge with, for example, the
|
|||
|
highest betweenness centrality::
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
>>> from networkx import edge_betweenness_centrality as betweenness
|
|||
|
>>> def most_central_edge(G):
|
|||
|
... centrality = betweenness(G, weight='weight')
|
|||
|
... return max(centrality, key=centrality.get)
|
|||
|
...
|
|||
|
>>> G = nx.path_graph(10)
|
|||
|
>>> comp = girvan_newman(G, most_valuable_edge=most_central_edge)
|
|||
|
>>> tuple(sorted(c) for c in next(comp))
|
|||
|
([0, 1, 2, 3, 4], [5, 6, 7, 8, 9])
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
To specify a different ranking algorithm for edges, use the
|
|||
|
`most_valuable_edge` keyword argument::
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
>>> from networkx import edge_betweenness_centrality
|
|||
|
>>> from random import random
|
|||
|
>>> def most_central_edge(G):
|
|||
|
... centrality = edge_betweenness_centrality(G)
|
|||
|
... max_cent = max(centrality.values())
|
|||
|
... # Scale the centrality values so they are between 0 and 1,
|
|||
|
... # and add some random noise.
|
|||
|
... centrality = {e: c / max_cent for e, c in centrality.items()}
|
|||
|
... # Add some random noise.
|
|||
|
... centrality = {e: c + random() for e, c in centrality.items()}
|
|||
|
... return max(centrality, key=centrality.get)
|
|||
|
...
|
|||
|
>>> G = nx.path_graph(10)
|
|||
|
>>> comp = girvan_newman(G, most_valuable_edge=most_central_edge)
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Notes
|
|||
|
-----
|
|||
|
The Girvan–Newman algorithm detects communities by progressively
|
|||
|
removing edges from the original graph. The algorithm removes the
|
|||
|
"most valuable" edge, traditionally the edge with the highest
|
|||
|
betweenness centrality, at each step. As the graph breaks down into
|
|||
|
pieces, the tightly knit community structure is exposed and the
|
|||
|
result can be depicted as a dendrogram.
