Create a weighted graph from an adjacency matrix in graph-tool, python interface

Question

How should I create a graph using graph-tool in python, out of an adjacency matrix? Assume we have adj matrix as the adjacency matrix.

What I do now is like this:

        g = graph_tool.Graph(directed = False)
        g.add_vertex(len(adj))
        edge_weights = g.new_edge_property('double')
        for i in range(adj.shape[0]):
            for j in range(adj.shape[1]):
                if i > j and adj[i,j] != 0:
                    e = g.add_edge(i, j)
                    edge_weights[e] = adj[i,j]

But it doesn't feel right, do we have any better solution for this?

(and I guess a proper tag for this would be graph-tool, but I can't add it, some kind person with enough privileges could make the tag?)

Answer 1

Graph-tool now includes a function to add a list of edges to the graph. You can now do, for instance:

import graph_tool as gt
import numpy as np
g = gt.Graph(directed=False)
adj = np.random.randint(0, 2, (100, 100))
g.add_edge_list(np.transpose(adj.nonzero()))

Answer 2

this is the extension of Tiago's answer for the weighted graph:

adj = numpy.random.randint(0, 10, (100, 100)) # a random directed graph
idx = adj.nonzero()
weights = adj[idx]
g = Graph()
g.add_edge_list(transpose(idx)))

#add weights as an edge propetyMap
ew = g.new_edge_property("double")
ew.a = weights 
g.ep['edge_weight'] = ew
