Overview
This is a temporal hypergraph dataset, which here means a sequence of timestamped hyperedges where each hyperedge is a set of nodes. This dataset was constructed from a contact network amongst high school students in Marseilles, France, in December 2013. The contact network was downloaded from 
We form hyperedges through cliques of simultaneous contacts. Specifically, for every unique timestamp in the dataset, we construct a hyperedge for every maximal clique amongst the contact edges that exist for that timestamp. Timestamps were recorded in 20-second intervals.
Statistics
Some basic statistics of this dataset are:

Number of nodes: 327
Number of timestamped hyperedges: 172,035
There is a single connected component of size 327
