SocNetV v1.8 Released with Scale-Free Network Generator
A new version of SocNetV has just been released with a couple of nice new features.
Clique Computation Routine
SocNetV v1.8 includes a revamped clique computation routine with an updated report. The new “clique census” report provides:
- Aggregate counts of cliques (up to clique number 4).
- Disaggregation by vertex and co-membership information.
Scale-Free Network Generator
This version introduces the ability to generate scale-free random networks/graphs using the Barabási–Albert (BA) model, which employs a preferential attachment mechanism.
The algorithm starts with ( m_0 ) connected nodes (default: 1). At each step, a new node is added with ( m ) edges to existing nodes. The probability ( p_i ) that the n
