class noesis.models.NetworkModel(model, *args)

This class implements the interface for network models, allowing to instantiate a network given a network formation model.

Parameters:

• model (string) – Network formation model used to generate the network. Currently supported models are ‘ErdosRenyi’, ‘BarabasiAlbert’, ‘WattsStrogatz’, ‘Gilbert’, ‘PriceCitation’, ‘AnchoredRandom’, ‘ConnectedRandom’, ‘Complete’, ‘BinaryTree’, ‘Hypercube’, ‘Isolate’, ‘Mesh’, ‘Ring’, ‘Star’, ‘Tandem’, and ‘Toroidal’.
