graphscope.nx.generators.duplication.partial_duplication_graph

graphscope.nx.generators.duplication.partial_duplication_graph(N, n, p, q, seed=None)[source]

Returns a random graph using the partial duplication model.

Parameters:

  • N (int) – The total number of nodes in the final graph.

  • n (int) – The number of nodes in the initial clique.

  • p (float) – The probability of joining each neighbor of a node to the duplicate node. Must be a number in the between zero and one, inclusive.

  • q (float) – The probability of joining the source node to the duplicate node. Must be a number in the between zero and one, inclusive.

  • seed (integer, random_state, or None (default)) – Indicator of random number generation state. See Randomness.

Notes

A graph of nodes is grown by creating a fully connected graph of size n. The following procedure is then repeated until a total of N nodes have been reached.

  1. A random node, u, is picked and a new node, v, is created.

  2. For each neighbor of u an edge from the neighbor to v is created with probability p.

  3. An edge from u to v is created with probability q.

This algorithm appears in [1].

This implementation allows the possibility of generating disconnected graphs.
