jwalk

Build Status Documentation Status

jwalk performs random walks on a graph and learns representations for nodes using Word2Vec. It also has options to train existing models online and specify weights.

Install

pip install -U jwalk

Build

make build

Usage

jwalk -i tests/data/karate.edgelist -o karate.emb --delimiter=' '

To see the full list of options:

jwalk --help

Prompt parameters:
  debug:            drop a debugger if an exception is raised
  delimiter:        delimiter for input file
  embedding-size:   dimension of word2vec embedding (default=200)
  has-header:       boolean if csv has header row
  help (-h):        argparse help
  input (-i):       file input (edgelist of 2/3 cols or adjacency matrix)
  log-level (-l)    logging level (default=INFO)
  model (-m):       use a pre-existing model
  num-walks (-n):   number of of random walks per graph (default=1)
  output (-o):      file output
  stats:            boolean to calculate walk statistics [requires pandas]
  undirected:       make graph undirected
  walk-length:      length of random walks (default=10)
  window-size:      word2vec window size (default=5)
  workers:          number of workers (default=multiprocessing.cpu_count)

Input File

The input file can be of the following formats:

  • Edgelist: CSV with 2 or 3 columns denoting the source, target and (optional) weight. There are CLI options to specify the delimiter and whether the file has a header (default=False). The CSV file is loaded using numpy if pandas is not installed. We strongly recommend using pandas to load the CSV as it’s a lot faster.
  • Graph: If the file has an extension that is ”.npz”, jwalk will assume that it is a SciPy CSR matrix. Included must be keys of data, indices, indptr, shape and labels (default=None) where labels are the node labels. For an example, see tests/data/karate.npz.

Test
