Through the use of NetworkX's API, tutorial participants will learn about the basics of graph theory and its use in applied network science. Starting with a computationally-oriented definition of a graph and its associated methods, we will build out into progressively more advanced concepts...

Ever wondered about how to find bottlenecks in the electricity grid? Patient zero in a outbreak? Or recommending friends on a social network? This talk is for data scientists and other programmers who want to add another tool in their data science toolkit. We will discuss how tools like NetworkX...

Have you ever wondered about how those data scientists at Facebook and LinkedIn make friend recommendations? Or how epidemiologists track down patient zero in an outbreak? If so, then this tutorial is for you! Learn more about using network science to tackle your data problems with the PyData tools.

This tutorial will introduce the basics of network theory and working with graphs/networks using python and the NetworkX package. This will be a hands on tutorial and will require writing a lot of code snippets. The participants should be comfortable with basic python (loops, dictionaries,...
