Creating adjacency matrices for network analysis

6 views (last 30 days)
I have a table (below) which I'm trying to convert into an adjacency matrix in matlab so I can conduct a network analysis.
Are there any packages available for this? Or is there a better format for the matrix to be in for conversion?
Thanks

If these are fuel costs that you want to use to minimize expenses given that each of the industries / applications on the left side require a certain amount of fuel and given other constraints, I'm not sure that a network graph is the best tool for this application. I'd read this into a matrix or a table (the latter using readtable) and then use some of the functions from Optimization Toolbox to perform that optimization.
If you really need or want to create a graph or digraph from this data, you're going to need to make a square adjacency matrix. Use readtable as I mentioned above or the tools listed on this documentation page for the type of file in which this data is stored to read it into a matrix or table, make a square matrix (probably by padding with zeros), then build and analyze your graph or digraph.

i have a question similar to this, I have an IEEE physical network in simulink and I want to create an adjacent matrix for it so i can get minimum spanning tree
