pop2net 1.2.2

Pop2net is a Python package designed to generate and manage relations between agents in agent-based models in a simple and flexible way.

Pop2net

Pop2net is a Python package that combines many steps related to network generation and management for agent-based modeling using a bipartite approach: In Pop2net, relations are represented as a graph of actors and locations. While actors are the active entities within an agent-based model, locations act as a contact layer, representing specific contexts through which actors connect. This makes it easy to generate and manage custom network structures in an agent-based model.

Pop2net can be used within custom modeling frameworks and also integrates seamlessly with the agent-based modeling frameworks AgentPy and Mesa.

Installation

You can install Pop2net using pip:

pip install pop2net

Python 3.14.1 has a bug which causes networkX to crash, see this issue. If you use Python 3.14, make sure to use any other path version that 3.14.1.
