Introduction
The ‘Social Network’ shiny app can be used to experiment on different graph formation can result in different
centralities scores and infer different roles to nodes in the network.
The app is available at: https://ikanez.shinyapps.io/Social_Network

Graph is randomly generated using Erdos-Renyi model. Roles are inferred based on Drew Conway’s presentation on
Socio-Terrorism (http://riskecon.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/Conway-Socio_Terrorism.pdf)
