getedgesbynodeid (biograph) - Get handles to edges in biograph object

Syntax

Edges = getedgesbynodeid(BGobj,SourceIDs,SinkIDs)

Arguments

Description

Edges = getedgesbynodeid(BGobj,SourceIDs,SinkIDs) gets the handles to the edges that connect the specified source nodes (SourceIDs) to the specified sink nodes (SinkIDs) in a biograph object.

Example

1. Create a biograph object for the Hominidae family.

   species = {'Homo','Pan','Gorilla','Pongo','Baboon',...
              'Macaca','Gibbon'};
   cm = magic(7)>25 & 1-eye(7);
   bg = biograph(cm, species);
   

2. Find all the edges that connect to the Homo node.

   EdgesIn = getedgesbynodeid(bg,[],'Homo');
   EdgesOut = getedgesbynodeid(bg,'Homo',[]);
   set(EdgesIn,'LineColor',[0 1 0]);
   set(EdgesOut,'LineColor',[1 0 0]);
   bg.view;
   

3. Find all edges that connect members of the Cercopithecidae family to members of the Hominidae family.

   Cercopithecidae = {'Macaca','Baboon'};
   Hominidae = {'Homo','Pan','Gorilla','Pongo'};
   edgesSel = getedgesbynodeid(bg,Cercopithecidae,Hominidae);
   set(bg.edges,'LineColor',[.5 .5 .5]);
   set(edgesSel,'LineColor',[0 0 1]);
   bg.view;
