Usage

Solver

After having declared your parameters, you must initiate an instance and run the algorithm:

solver = Solver(params)
Q = solver.get_probabilities_Q()

The output of solver.get_probabilities_Q() is a dictionary where keys are the configurations as strings (e.g. "101011011") and values are the probabilities of getting the key configuration. For example, the output could look like:

{
 '01110': -3.5575383784680611984e-21,
 '01111': 1.8973538018496326391e-20,
 '11001': -5.4887734982078661633e-20,
	...
 }

Parameters

The algorithm needs some parameters to run. We use a dictionary to feed the parameters.

params = {
 "edgelist_path" : "./edgelist.txt",
	"response_function": [
		{	
			"name": "bond",
			"nodes": [0,1,2],
			"params": {
				"p": 0.3,
				"p_spontaneous": 0.1
			}
		},
		{	
			"name": "watts",
			"nodes": [3,4],
			"params": {
				"threshold": 3.0,
				"p": 0.4
			}
		},
	]
}
  • edgelist_path : The path to the edgelist
  • response_function : A list of response functions to use.

In each element of params["response_function"], you must declare the name of the response function and the nodes that apply to.

Symbolic results

It is possible to output the result in a symbolic form. In this case, you do not need to specify the response functions

params = {
	"edgelist_path" : "./edgelist.txt",
	"symbolic"      : True
}
solver = Solver(params)
Q = solver.get_probabilities_Q()

The output will look like

'00001' : '<prod><add>1;-<div><prod>G(0,0);G(1,0);G(2,0);G(3,0);G(4,0)</prod>;<prod>G(0,0);G(1,0);G(2,0.0);G(3,0.0);</prod></div>;</add>;<prod>G(0,0);G(1,1);G(2,0.0);G(3,0.0);</prod></prod>',
'00000' : '<prod>G(0,0);G(1,0);G(2,0);G(3,0);G(4,0)</prod>',
'00100' : '<prod><add>1;-<div><prod>G(0,0);G(1,0);G(2,0);G(3,0);G(4,0)</prod>;<prod>G(0,0);G(1,0);G(3,0.0);G(4,0.0);</prod></div>;</add>;<prod>G(0,0);G(1,1);G(3,0.0);G(4,0.0);</prod></prod>',
...

The symbolic form can be interpreted like a HTML code. Use BeautifulSoup to prettify the output.

import numpy as np
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup

symbols = "<prod><add>1;-<div><prod>G(0,0);G(1,0);G(2,0);G(3,0);G(4,0)</prod>;<prod>G(0,0);G(1,0);G(2,0.0);G(3,0.0);</prod></div>;</add>;<prod>G(0,0);G(1,1);G(2,0.0);G(3,0.0);</prod></prod>"
soup = BeautifulSoup(symbols, 'html.parser')
soup.prettify()
<prod>
 <add>
  1;-
  <div>
   <prod>
    G(0,0);G(1,0);G(2,0);G(3,0);G(4,0)
   </prod>
   ;
   <prod>
    G(0,0);G(1,0);G(2,0.0);G(3,0.0);
   </prod>
  </div>
  ;
 </add>
 ;
 <prod>
  G(0,0);G(1,1);G(2,0.0);G(3,0.0);
 </prod>
</prod>

The XML format has three tags

  • <prod> : Product
  • <add> : Addition
  • <div> : Division
  • G(i,m) : Means 1-F_i(m) where i is the node index and m is the number of active neighbors

where contents are separated by ;.

For example,

  • <prod>G(0,1);G(1,3)</prod> means G(0,1)*G(1,3)
  • <add>G(0,1);G(1,3)</add> means G(0,1)+G(1,3)
  • <div>G(0,1);G(1,3)</div> means G(0,1)/G(1,3)

And more complex statements should keep the hierarchy, such as

  • <prod><add>1;G(0,1)</add>;G(2,2)</prod> means [1-G(0,1)]*G(2,2)
