Dynamic graphs occur almost everywhere in our day-to-day lives and hence it becomes very important for a good visualization tool to allow capabilities for studying these graphs. Gephi has some brilliant features for studying various properties of dynamic graphs. In this recipe, we will learn how to filter dynamic graphs based on varying timelines, so that one can see the status of the network in a time range. Let's get started then.
To work on this recipe, we will first need to generate a dynamic graph to work on. To do that, follow these steps:
Load Gephi into a blank project mode.
Click on the File option in the menu bar that is located at the top of the Gephi application window. From the drop-down list, select Generate and then Dynamic Graph Example. This generates a new dynamic graph in Gephi.
Run the Fruchterman Reingold algorithm on this graph.
In the Partition panel, under the Nodes tab, click on the refresh button to populate...
