      nz.ac.waikato.mcennis.rat.graph.algorithm.prestige.LinkBetweeness

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable, Component, Algorithm, Listener, Model

public class LinkBetweeness
extends ModelShell
implements Algorithm, Listener

Class built upon OptimizedPathBase that calculates Betweeness for links. OptimizedPathBase only records one geodesic path for each actor pair, otherwise same as the betweeness metric deefined in Freeman79.

Method Detail

execute

public void execute(Graph g)

Description copied from interface: Algorithm

execute the algorithm against the given graph

Specified by:

execute in interface Algorithm

Parameters:

g - graph to be modified

doCleanup

protected void doCleanup(PathNode[] path,
                         Graph g)

getInputType

public java.util.List<IODescriptor> getInputType()

Description copied from interface: Component

The input type describes all the different kinds of graph objects that are utilized (and hence required) by this object. This result is only guaranteed to be fixed if structural parameters are not modified. This is an empty array if there is no input.

Specified by:

getInputType in interface Component

Returns:

IODescriptor array for this component

See Also:

IODescriptor

getOutputType

public java.util.List<IODescriptor> getOutputType()

Description copied from interface: Component

The output type describes all the different kinds of graph objects that are created during the execution of this algorithm. The result is only guaranteed to be fixed if structural parameters are not modified. This is an empty array if there is no output.

Specified by:

getOutputType in interface Component

Returns:

IODescriptor array for this component

See Also:

IODescriptor

getParameter

public Properties getParameter()

Description copied from interface: Component

List of all parameters this component accepts. Each parameter also has a distinct key-name used when initializing the object using the init method. If there are no parameters, null is returned.

Specified by:

getParameter in interface Component

Returns:

read-only array of Parameters

getParameter

public Parameter getParameter(java.lang.String param)

Description copied from interface: Component

Returns the specific parameter identified by its key-name. If no parameter is found with this key-name, null is returned.

Specified by:

getParameter in interface Component

Parameters:

param - key-name of the parameter

Returns:

named parameter

init

public void init(Properties map)

Parameters to be initialized. Subclasses should override if they provide any additional parameters or require additional inputs.

1. 'name' - Name of this instance of the algorithm. Default is ''.
2. 'relation' - type (relation) of link to calculate over. Default 'Knows'.
3. 'actorType' - type (mode) of actor to calculate over. Deafult 'User'.
4. 'normalize' - boolean for whether or not to normalize prestige vectors. Default 'false'.

Input 0 - Link
Output 0 - LinkProperty

Specified by:

init in interface Component

Parameters:

map - map of the given properties naming parameters and their values in a string

publishChange

public void publishChange(Model m,
                          int type,
                          int argument)

Description copied from interface: Listener

Recieve and update of the given type.

Specified by:

publishChange in interface Listener

Parameters:

m - model that changed

type - type of change that has occured

prototype

public LinkBetweeness prototype()

Description copied from interface: Component

All Components implement the prototype pattern. The new parameter has no common resources to the original that are not static resources o the class.

Specified by:

prototype in interface Component

Specified by:

prototype in interface Algorithm

Returns:

default-parameter version of the same class as the original.
