The real words

The five network analysis techniques

The deck's list, and an exam answer should give all five.

  1. Centrality measures: which nodes hold significant positions
  2. Community detection: which groups are denser inside than outside
  3. Network visualization: making clusters, centrality and topology visible
  4. Network motifs: small recurring subgraphs that are the network's building blocks
  5. Path analysis: shortest paths and flows, so communication efficiency and critical paths
