Character interaction temporal graph analysis

CharNet: Dynamic Social Network Analysis for TV Series Dialogues

CharNet is a Python package designed for performing graph analysis on dynamic social networks based on dialogues in TV series. It provides tools for loading dialogue data, calculating and creating weighted graphs, and visualizing character interactions over time.

Simple example

---

from charnet import CharNet
import pandas as pd

df = pd.read_csv('your_tv_series_data.csv')
net = CharNet(df, ('Season', 'Episode', 'Scene', 'Line'),
              interactions='Words', speakers='Speaker', listeners='Listener')
net.get_weights(lambda x: len(x))
net.set_min_step('Scene')
subset = net.get_interval((1, 1, 1, 1), (1, 2, 1, 1))
subset.normalize_weights()
subset.set_layout('circular')
subset.draw(plot='matplotlib')

from charnet.analysis import simple_degree

degree_results = simple_degree(subset, weighted=True)
degree_results.to_csv('results.csv', index=False)
