I’m doing a homework on data mining. Now I have a data set which stands for acquaintance network in social network. I want to visualize this network. In this network, vertex stands for user and edge stands for acquaintance relationship. Now I use igraph package for R to achieve my goal. However, my data set is too large with more than 100,000 vertexes and more than 1000,000 edges, which causes the generated graph not clear. In fact, the graph is totally unrecognized. How can I get a clear graph using igraph package? Or, which software can complete this task?
ps: my data set likes that:
100 20
10 2
2 4
each line stands for a relationship between two people
Thank you in advance!
If you want an answer on this forum, you will need to provide at least a small amount of the data that you want to analyse and many people will help you get off to a good start.
You may also want to consider using an application, such as Cytoscape, that is designed for the analysis of networks. It may be easier to start your visualisation and exploration of this large network.
