I want to conduct centrality analysis, and prior to do that I found that I have to make a graph data first. So I was struggling to make graph with 'graph.data.frame' function with 'igraph' package. This is my code.
links = fread("C:/Users/82109/Documents/centrality_baselayer.csv")
links = links %>% select("LINK_ID", "UP_FROM_NO", "UP_TO_NODE") # the first picture
nodes = fread("C:/Users/82109/Documents/linkdata.csv")
nodes = nodes %>% select("UP_FROM_NO")
nodes = unique(nodes) # the second picture
with the code above, I gained following data :
and with the dataframes above and a code below, I tried to make graph.
But this error bothers me...
Error in graph.data.frame(d = links, vertices = nodes, directed = T) : Some vertex names in edge list are not listed in vertex data frame
This makes me very embarrassed now...I would be very appreciate if you help me!
I cannot see your data, which makes a specific answer possible. Please proved a REPREX for helping us and getting more specific help.
The error message is however quite self explaining: your edge-list contains links between vertices that are not present in the node-list. As you read them from different csv's, I expect a mismatch here?
Have you tried creating the nodelist directly from the link-file?
nodes = data.frame(node = unique(links$UP_FROM_NO, links$UP_TO_NODE))
#or use select-full_join-distinct for dplyr
nodes = full_join(select(links, UP_FROM_NO), select(links, UP_TO_NODE), by = c("UP_FROM_NO" = 'UP_TO_NODE") %>%
distinct()
This will assure the nodelist contains all the links table appear unambiguously in the node-list
I created node list directly from link file, as your question just now. After conducting similar process with the method you told me, I finally made it. Thank you. But I am facing another problem right now...Have you did this stuff before?
Incidentally I do and did. However, if you now run into other problems, I suggest you tick this question for answered and post a new one. This will help you to get faster responses from the community.
