identification of hub nodes in networks using command line

Question

[Aimin Li]

There are some plugins of Cytoscape which can identify hub nodes from networks. However, we want to run some command s in shell (i.e. Linux shell command), not in GUI like Cytoscape to get hub nodes. We are going to integrate these commands (or open source code) into our tools. Any suggestions would be highly appreciate!

Hi Aimin,

the R function calc_props can be used to identify hub nodes based on different centrality properties: degree, betweenness, closeness, and eigenvector.

Thank a lot! I tried it and it works.
