cell-flower 1.0.1

Cell FLOWer processes edge flows using cell complexes.

Cell FLOWer

Cell FLOWer processes edge flows using cell complexes. It was developed for the paper Representing Edge Flows on Graphs via Sparse Cell Complexes. You can find the evaluation workflow here. Install it using:

pip install cell-flower

How to use it (Also check out the complete examples):

import cell_flower as cf
import networkx as nx

G = ... # nx.Graph
CC, node_list, node_index_map = cf.nx_graph_to_cc(G) # converts nodes in G to int and also returns the mapping
flows = ... # np.ndarray, shape (samples, edges)

CC_prime = cf.cell_inference_approximation(CC, flows, 2, 2, n_clusters=5)
# Check to see the cells that were recovered; map back to node labels
[ cf.index_to_cell(cell, node_list) for cell in CC_prime.get_cells(2) ]
