This is an implementation of the *absorbing random-walk centrality* measure for 
nodes in graphs. For the definition of the measure, as well as a study of the
related optimization problem and algorithmic techniques, please see the pre-print
publication on arXiv_. A short version of this paper will appear in the
`ICDM 2015`__.

Installation
------------

You can install the *absorbing_centrality* package by executing the following command in a terminal.

::

   pip install git+https://github.com/harrymvr/absorbing-centrality#Egg=absorbing_centrality

Documentation
-------------

For instructions on how to use the package, consult `its documentation`__.

__ https://absorbing-centrality.readthedocs.org/

Development
-----------

To run all the tests for the code, you will need tox_ -- check its webpage for instructions on how to install it.

.. _tox: https://testrun.org/tox/latest/

Once tox_ is installed, use your terminal to enter the directory with the local copy of the code (here it's named '*absorbing-centrality*') and simply type the following command.

::

    absorbing-centrality $ tox

If everything goes well, you'll receive a congratulatory message.
