- r"""Compute the CD index for `node` within the graph `G`.
- Calculates the CD index for the given node of the graph,
- considering only its predecessors who have the `time` attribute
- smaller than or equal to the `time` attribute of the `node`
- plus `time_delta`.
- Parameters
- ----------
- G : graph
- A directed networkx graph whose nodes have `time` attributes and optionally
- `weight` attributes (if a weight is not given, it is considered 1).
- node : node
- The node for which the CD index is calculated.
- time_delta : numeric or timedelta
- Amount of time after the `time` attribute of the `node`. The value of
- `time_delta` must support comparison with the `time` node attribute. For
- example, if the `time` attribute of the nodes are `datetime.datetime`
- objects, then `time_delta` should be a `datetime.timedelta` object.
- time : string (Optional, default is "time")
- The name of the node attribute that will be used for the calculations.
- weight : string (Optional, default is None)
- The name of the node attribute used as weight.
- Returns
- -------
- float
- The CD index calculated for the node `node` within the graph `G`.
- Raises
- ------
- NetworkXError
- If not all nodes have a `time` attribute or
- `time_delta` and `time` attribute types are not compatible or
- `n` equals 0.
- NetworkXNotImplemented
- If `G` is a non-directed graph or a multigraph.
- Examples
- --------
- >>> from datetime import datetime, timedelta
- >>> G = nx.DiGraph()
- >>> nodes = {
- ... 1: {"time": datetime(2015, 1, 1)},
- ... 2: {"time": datetime(2012, 1, 1), "weight": 4},
- ... 3: {"time": datetime(2010, 1, 1)},
- ... 4: {"time": datetime(2008, 1, 1)},
- ... 5: {"time": datetime(2014, 1, 1)},
- ... }
- >>> G.add_nodes_from([(n, nodes[n]) for n in nodes])
- >>> edges = [(1, 3), (1, 4), (2, 3), (3, 4), (3, 5)]
- >>> G.add_edges_from(edges)
- >>> delta = timedelta(days=5 * 365)
- >>> nx.cd_index(G, 3, time_delta=delta, time="time")
- 0.5
- >>> nx.cd_index(G, 3, time_delta=delta, time="time", weight="weight")
- 0.12
- Integers can also be used for the time values:
- >>> node_times = {1: 2015, 2: 2012, 3: 2010, 4: 2008, 5: 2014}
- >>> nx.set_node_attributes(G, node_times, "new_time")
- >>> nx.cd_index(G, 3, time_delta=4, time="new_time")
- 0.5
- >>> nx.cd_index(G, 3, time_delta=4, time="new_time", weight="weight")
- 0.12
- Notes
- -----
- This method implements the algorithm for calculating the CD index,
- as described in the paper by Funk and Owen-Smith [1]_. The CD index
- is used in order to check how consolidating or destabilizing a patent
- is, hence the nodes of the graph represent patents and the edges show
- the citations between these patents. The mathematical model is given
- below:
- .. math::
- CD_{t}=\frac{1}{n_{t}}\sum_{i=1}^{n}\frac{-2f_{it}b_{it}+f_{it}}{w_{it}},
- where `f_{it}` equals 1 if `i` cites the focal patent else 0, `b_{it}` equals
- 1 if `i` cites any of the focal patents successors else 0, `n_{t}` is the number
- of forward citations in `i` and `w_{it}` is a matrix of weight for patent `i`
- at time `t`.
- The `datetime.timedelta` package can lead to off-by-one issues when converting
- from years to days. In the example above `timedelta(days=5 * 365)` looks like
- 5 years, but it isn't because of leap year days. So it gives the same result
- as `timedelta(days=4 * 365)`. But using `timedelta(days=5 * 365 + 1)` gives
- a 5 year delta **for this choice of years** but may not if the 5 year gap has
- more than 1 leap year. To avoid these issues, use integers to represent years,
- or be very careful when you convert units of time.
