Let me start off by saying that working with igraph through its python bindings has been a great relieve! Although its R bindings seem to be much popular, I much prefer python over R. It’s not that R is bad—on the contrary, it’s very good—but it’s simply not very much a programmer’s tool, it’s more a statistician’s type of tool. I guess I’m not the latter.

Significance in random graphs, trees and lattices
\(\)
Many complex graphs seem to contain some sort of community structure, representing a microscopic scale of organisation of the network. Nonetheless, many graphs do not seem to have any particular community structure, such as random graphs. One of the central questions then when finding a community structure in some empirical graph is whether it is very different from a random graph? In other words, is the community structure significant? Continue reading Significance in random graphs, trees and lattices
