摘要

用于社交网络分析的传统工具和软件很少具有可扩展性和/或快速性。本文提供了一个名为fastnet的R包的概述，fastnet是一个用于扩展和加速大规模社交网络模拟和分析的工具。Fastnet使用多核处理和子图采样算法来实现所需的扩展和加速。本文给出了一些简单的例子、用法以及与其他R包(即igraph和statnet)相比的scale-up和speed-up的比较。

fastnet: An R Package for Fast Simulation and Analysis of Large-Scale Social Networks

Traditional tools and software for social network analysis are seldom scalable and/or fast. This paper provides an overview of an R package called fastnet, a tool for scaling and speeding up the simulation and analysis of large-scale social networks. fastnet uses multi-core processing and sub-graph sampling algorithms to achieve the desired scale-up and speed-up. Simple examples, usages, and comparisons of scale-up and speed-up as compared to other R packages, i.e., igraph and statnet, are presented.
