Nodes are the entities in a graph and edges depict the relationships among these nodes. Sometimes, more than the nodes, these edges are of more interest to anyone performing exploratory analysis on graphs. In this recipe, we will learn how to partition the graph based on edge parameters and color the graph accordingly, in order to get better insights into the network under consideration.
In order to get started with this recipe, we will need to load the Les Misérables network into Gephi. Gephi doesn't have an off-the-shelf partitioning technique that utilizes an edge-based parameter. So, go to the Data Laboratory mode in Gephi, click on the Edges tab in the Data Table panel, and add labels for some or all of the edges. Return to Overview mode.
