graph-tool is a Python module for manipulation and statistical analysis of graphs (AKA networks). The core data structures and algorithms of graph-tool are implemented in C++, making extensive use of metaprogramming, based heavily on the Boost Graph Library.[1] Many algorithms are implemented in parallel using OpenMP, which provides increased performance on multi-core architectures.
Features
[edit]- Creation and manipulation of directed or undirected graphs.
- Association of arbitrary information to the vertices, edges or even the graph itself, by means of property maps.
- Filter vertices and/or edges "on the fly", such that they appear to have been removed.
- Support for dot, Graph Modelling Language and GraphML formats.
- Convenient and powerful graph drawing based on cairo or Graphviz.
- Support for typical statistical measurements: degree/property histogram, combined degree/property histogram, vertex-vertex correlations, assortativity, average vertex-vertex shortest path, etc.
- Support for several graph-theoretical algorithms: such as graph isomorphism, subgraph isomorphism, minimum spanning tree, connected components, dominator tree, maximum flow, etc.
- Support for several centrality measures.
- Support for clustering coefficients, as well as network motif statistics and community structure detection.
- Generation of random graphs, with arbitrary degree distribution and correlations.
- Support for well-established network models: Price, Barabási-Albert, Geometric Networks, Multidimensional lattice graph, etc.
Suitability
[edit]Graph-tool can be used to work with very large graphs [clarification needed] in a variety of contexts, including simulation of cellular tissue,[2] data mining,[3][4] analysis of social networks,[5][6] analysis of P2P systems,[7] large-scale modeling of agent-based systems,[8] study of academic Genealogy trees,[9] theoretical assessment and modeling of network clustering,[10] large-scale call graph analysis,[11] and analysis of the brain's Connectome.[12]

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
