question about seed file

[masoud....@gmail.com]

 Hi,

 I want to use adsorption algorithm on a text file and found junto so useful for this purpose. I almost understood how to use this toolkit; but, still I'm wondering what the seed file is used for. Could you please help me figure out what how to fill the seed file?

thanks

The seed file specifies the label supervision provided to the algorithm. In particular, it stores the initial labels for some subset of nodes in the graph. The algorithm uses these initial seeded nodes, and the underlying graph to label the remaining unlabeled nodes. I hope this helps.

Quick question about this: what does the number in the seed file represent in the third column? Is it a weight or initial probability for the label?

It is the initial score for the seed label on the seeded node.
