Outputting Results¶
Create Sub-Network¶
Clusters can be output as sub or child-networks of the original network by selecting the Create Cluster Network option located on the MCODE menu which appears after clicking the Toolbar’s Options button.
Since exploration allows for a cluster size to change, the user can create as many sub-networks of the same cluster as desired.
New networks are named by their result number, cluster rank and score (e.g.
1: Cluster 2 (Score: 4.3)
).
Export as Text¶
MCODE results can be exported to a time-stamped text file by selecting the Export Result option located on the MCODE Options menu (see Toolbar section).
Clusters are summarized in a tab-delimited format consisting of:
Cluster
: rank
Score (Density*#Nodes)
: cluster score (density multiplied by the number of members)
Nodes
: number of nodes
Edges
: number of edges
Node IDs
: cluster member IDs (comma-delimited)
The parameters used in scoring and finding the exported result are included in the file as well for future reference:
