Towards a format for describing networks

Vladimir Batagelj, Tomaž Pisanski, Iztok Savnik, Ana Slavec, Nino Bašić

Open data plays a crucial role in ensuring the computational reproducibility and verifiability of published results. Collections of similar datasets are also important for developing methods to analyze specific types of data. When preparing such data, it is essential to adhere to the FAIR principles - Findability, Accessibility, Interoperability, and Reusability. To facilitate ease of use, data should ideally be stored in a text format that preserves the structure of data and includes relevant metadata.

Network analysis is an area where data is often stored in diverse file formats. Adopting a common format for storing network data would be highly beneficial. Such a format would allow us to obtain the specific descriptions required by various network analysis programs using relatively simple scripts.

During the seminar, we will first explore the relationship between the concepts of network and knowledge graph. Following this, we will introduce the key components that a common format for describing networks should include.
