Temporal Networks and the Activity Driven Framework

Short introduction to temporal networks, the activity driven framework, and epidemic processes on activity driven networks

Repository Structure

1. Notebook 01_activity_driven_networks.ipynb contains the code to:

• Sample activities from a fiven distribution
• Generate temporal networks using the activity driven framework as generating method (both with random partner selections and community structure)
• Display the simulated temporal networks Solution for this notebook can be find here

2. Notebook 02_epidemic_spreading_on_adn.ipynb contains the code to simulate a simple SIR model on activity driven networks with random partner selection as introduced in previous notebook. Solution for this notebook can be find here
