Welcome to pymetis’s documentation!¶

Quick Start¶

This graph, adapted from Figure 2 of the Metis manual to use zero-based indexing,

can be defined and partitioned into two graphs with

import numpy as np
import pymetis
adjacency_list = [np.array([4, 2, 1]),
                  np.array([0, 2, 3]),
                  np.array([4, 3, 1, 0]),
                  np.array([1, 2, 5, 6]),
                  np.array([0, 2, 5]),
                  np.array([4, 3, 6]),
                  np.array([5, 3])]
n_cuts, membership = pymetis.part_graph(2, adjacency=adjacency_list)
# n_cuts = 3
# membership = [1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0, 0]

nodes_part_0 = np.argwhere(np.array(membership) == 0).ravel() # [3, 5, 6]
nodes_part_1 = np.argwhere(np.array(membership) == 1).ravel() # [0, 1, 2, 4]
