Class SocialNetworkSampler

java.lang.Object

ch.ethz.matsim.socialnetworkgeneration.framework.SocialNetworkSampler

public class SocialNetworkSampler
extends Object

Class that contains the general logic for generating a social network, using a heuristic approach that was shown empirically to perform well and fast on large scale networks.

It implements the appraoch described in chapter 5 of this dissertation. Please refer to it for details.

SocialNetworkSampler

@Inject
public SocialNetworkSampler(org.matsim.api.core.v01.population.Population population,
                            EgoCharacteristicsDistribution degreeDistribution,
                            CliquesFiller cliquesFiller,
                            EgoLocator egoLocator,
                            SpatialCollectionUtils.Metric<double[]> metric)

Parameters:

population - the population for which a social network will be generated

degreeDistribution - defines the rules to sample the CliqueStubs for each agent

cliquesFiller - defines the rules to match CliqueStubs to close the network

egoLocator - translates ego sociodemographics into a point in a cartesian space, used for closest-point matching

metric - defines the metric used to find the "closest" Ego to a point in the space of sociodemographics.
