About:
igraph is a high-performance library for network analysis, providing data structures and algorithms for graph theory. It supports efficient manipulation of complex networks, including creation, modification, and analysis of graph structures. The library is widely used in scientific research for modeling and analyzing relational data.
Key Features:
  • Supports large networks with efficient memory usage
  • Comprehensive suite of graph algorithms
  • Bindings for R, Python, C, and other languages
Use Cases:
  • Social network analysis and community detection
  • Biological network modeling and analysis
  • Infrastructure and routing optimization
Alternatives:
  • networkx – Python-based library; easier to use but less performant for large graphs
  • graph-tool – C++ backend with Python bindings; similar performance but GPL licensed
