Mixing Sets

nucoll supports mixing multiple sets of handles. The following example shows how to visualize the overlap between two handles oazanon and lemanamana using Gephi.

First, let's retrieve the data.

$ nucoll init oazanon

$ nucoll fetch -c 20000 oazanon

$ nucoll init lemanamana

$ nucoll fetch -c 20000 lemanamana

Next, we generate the combined GML file of handles from oazanon and lemanamana as follows.

$ nucoll edgelist oazanon lemanamana

nucoll recognizes that multiple handles are passed to edgelist. In that case, the subject attribute retains the origin of a particular handle. This can be used in Gephi to partition the network. Gephi will issue a warning when loading the .gml file if it sees duplicate node IDs. This occurs if a handle belongs to both sets.
