Re: [igraph] Simple VS non-simple graphs

[Chris Watson]

This will depend on your data and what it is that you want to show. There isn't one that is "better" than the other. It is probably also field-dependent, so you should consult the literature of your field.

Hi community,

I have a directed graph with multiple edges, and I was wondering whether to simplify the graph or not. Is simple better than non-simple? I compared my results for both, and they are mostly the same (you can see small-world and scale-free topology, as well as random mixing on both non-simple and simple graphs), although the community structure changes from the non-simple to the simple graph. Now I'm wandering what is the "best" option here. Any suggestions/ideas?

Thanks,

Tada
