A repository for the graph finger print comparison code, written in Python using the Graph-Tool pacakge. The paper entiteld Efficient Comparison of Massive Graphs Through The Use Of ‘Graph Fingerprints’ which this is the code for can be found here - http://www.mlgworkshop.org/2016/

This code can be used to compare two graph based upon their fingerprint.

This code has been tested on Python 2.7.5+ and requires the following packages to function correctly:

• numpy
• scipy
• graph-tool

To replicate the results found in the paper, please run the EXP.py scripts. Custom graphs can be compared by editing the GFP.py with the location of any two graphs which you would like to be compared.
