layer_activity.py

NAME

layer_activity.py - compute the activity of the layers of a multiplex, i.e. the number of active nodes on each layer.

SYNOPSYS

layer_activity.py <layer1> [<layer2> ...]

DESCRIPTION

Compute and print on output the activity of the layers of a multiplex network, where the layers are given as input in the files layer1, layer2, etc.

Each file contains the (undirected) edge list of a layer, and each line is in the format:

  src_ID dest_ID

where src_ID and dest_ID are the IDs of the two endpoints of an edge.

OUTPUT

A listof lines, where the n-th line is the value of activity of the n-th layer, starting from 0.
