Hello,I have been scratching my head in trying to understand the result of a one-mode projection of a bipartite graph.
This is the bipartite graph > graph_bi IGRAPH DN-B 154625 448384 -- and after bipartite.projection(graph_bi) these are the two projections > graph_onemode$proj1 IGRAPH UNWB 79186 13259012 -- > graph_onemode$proj2 IGRAPH UNWB 75439 50375826 --Now, my intuition doesn't help here. Simply, How is possible that the number of edges in the two projections increases by 29 and 112 times respectively?
I am probably missing something here but as I understand the one-mode projection the number of edges should actually decrease. A-B and B-C (where A and C are type 1 nodes and B is a type 2 node) should be projected to A-C thus halving the number of edges...
