ragraph.analysis.similarity
¶
Similarity analyses¶
Graph similarity is often expressed as a metric, where nodes and edges are scanned for similar patterns, properties, or other aspects. There are three levels of equivalence, being structural, automorphic, or regular equivalence. Where each of the former implies all latter equivalences, respectively.
Available analyses¶
The following algorithms are directly accessible after importing
ragraph.analysis.similarity
:
jaccard_index
: Jaccard Similarity Index of two objects based on the number properties they both possess divided by the number of properties either of them have.jaccard_matrix
: Jaccard Similarity Index between a set of objects stored in a square matrix.
Note
Both Jaccard methods require a callable that takes an object and returns a list of booleans
representing the possession of a property (the on
argument). Some examples are included in the
ragraph.analysis.similarity.utils
module, like
ragraph.analysis.similarity.utils.on_hasattrs
.
