Python HITMIX

Abstract

SAND2024-10158O Python HITMIX is a software package for computing hitting time moments of vertices in a graph. Hitting time moments can be used to rank the strengths of relationships between vertices in a graph. Examples are provided for computing and using hitting time moments on generic graphs and similarity graphs arising from the analysis of text documents in information retrieval applications. Sandia National Laboratories is a multimission laboratory managed and operated by National Technology & Engineering Solutions of Sandia, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Honeywell International Inc., for the U.S. Department of Energy’s National Nuclear Security Administration under contract DE-NA0003525.
