Little Ball of Fur - A graph sampling extension library for NetworKit and NetworkX (CIKM 2020)
When dealing with very large networks or graphs, it's often too slow or impractical to analyze the entire structure. This tool helps you create smaller, representative samples of these large graphs while preserving their essential characteristics. It takes your full network data and outputs a smaller, manageable subset of it. Data scientists, network analysts, and researchers working with complex interconnected data like social networks or protein interaction graphs would find this useful.
713 stars. Available on PyPI.
Use this if you need to efficiently analyze or visualize a massive graph dataset by working with a smaller, statistically representative sample.
Not ideal if your analysis requires every single node and edge from the original graph, as sampling inherently means some information is left out.
