girg-sampling 0.3.0

Efficient sampling of Geometric Inhomogeneous Random Graphs (GIRG). Wrapper for C++ libraries libgirg and libhypergirg.

GIRG sampling

A Python wrapper for the GIRGs sampling library (C++). Contains a direct wraper of the C++ library and NetworkX Graph generators (optional). Efficiently generates Geometric Inhomogeneous Random Graphs (GIRGs) and Hyperbolic Random Graphs (HRGs).

See the paper Efficiently Generating Geometric Inhomogeneous and Hyperbolic Random Graphs for details of the algorithm.

Install

Install from PyPI as girg-sampling via pip, poetry etc. To build the package locally, install Poetry package manager and run poetry build, optionally with poetry install.

To use generateNetworkX functions, you need to have the networkx package (not a default dependency of girg-sampling)

Usage

import girg_sampling

g = girg_sampling.girgs.generateNetworkX(n=135, ple=1.5, dim=4, deg=4.2, alpha=100, seed=41)
h = girg_sampling.hypergirgs.generateNetworkX(n=1001, alpha=0.75, T=0.7, deg=2.2, seed=None)

See tests for sample usage of the raw C++ wrappers.
