Description
Summary:This guide introduces you to the basics of network visualisation and analysis, using the open-source tool Gephi. Network analysis is a powerful method for the study of connections and relationships, from analysing the interconnections between concepts to visualising the flow of communication on social networks; the insights it produces can usefully complement more general statistical analyses or deep qualitative investigation. But good network analysis requires an understanding of the key concepts and approaches that this guide will introduce. It covers fundamental conceptual terms such as node, edge, degree, and cluster, as well as key practical considerations in installing and operating Gephi. By the end, you should be able to run Gephi and perform a first basic network visualisation and analysis.
