#Peace Sociology

Below is a graph of who talks to who in our chat room! This is our little experiement.

Thicker lines indicate a closer relationship between the people.

This graph is generated using our bot 'pikachu'. Pikachu is an IRC bot that monitors our channel. It uses a simple set of heuristics to infer relationships between pairs of users. These inferrences allow Pikachu to build a mathematical model of a social network for any channel. These social networks can be drawn and used to create animations of evolving social networks. Pikachu is powered by PieSpy by Jibble. For more information on Piespy visit here.
