Divide network analysis graph type selection into two steps #129

Closed dandybytes closed 3 years ago

Requested by Lena Jaskov:

I would like to propose a change for the graph type selection page in Lumy: There should only be 2 choices in the first step. The first choice is about what constitutes the objects in the network (i.e what are the nodes, are they all of the same “type”?): one-mode network - Is there only one node-set (a network containing only one node type: people OR books OR places OR words OR …)? OR multi-mode network - Is there more than one node-set (for example: connections between people, books, and places OR soldiers and their units)?

  1. In the second step you should be able to define the nature of the connections (the edges). directed - the direction of the connection matters (for example: you make a distinction between sending and receiving, following and being followed, helping and receiving help …) OR undirected - the direction does not matter, only the existence of the connection is significant Both one-mode networks and multi-mode networks can have directed and undirected connections.
