Is there a function in cytoscape for calculating node strength ?

Question

[SplitInf]

Hi all,

As titled. Is there a way to calculate node strength in cytoscape? igraph has strength() / igraph_strength() for summing the edge strength for each node.

Thank you!

No, there is nothing that I know of that will calculate the strength in Cytoscape. From what I read, the strength method in igraph just sums up the weights of all of the adjacent edges to get the node strength. You could pretty easily calculate that in python or R and import it into Cytoscape.
