Description
Summary:Social Network Analysis (SNA) is an approach to the study of social interactions represented as directed graphs. Recent studies have introduced a number of SNA metrics to obtain useful information from the social network. These metrics enable people to identify communication patterns, network characteristics, and suspicious groups in the network. This project was focusing on several metrics and discovering relationships among them, anticipating for more useful data by analyzing these relationships. Unknowingly what precise information could be obtained, the relationships at first were in form of comparison among metrics in a general scope, be it among values obtained, mathematical formulas, or even characteristics of each metric.
