ProbINet: Bridging Usability Gaps in Probabilistic Network Analysis

The ProbINet package is designed to be a comprehensive and user-friendly toolset for researchers and practitioners interested in modeling network data through probabilistic generative approaches. Our goal is to provide a unified resource that brings together different advances scattered across many code repositories. By doing so, we aim not only to enhance the usability of existing models but also to facilitate the comparison of different approaches. Moreover, through a range of tutorials, we aim at simplifying the use of these methods to perform inferential tasks, including the prediction of missing network edges, node clustering (community detection), anomaly identification, and the generation of synthetic data from latent variables.
