Social network analysis of Star Wars: The Attack of the Clones
This is a free adaptation of two (very) clever analyses made by others:
The Star Wars Social Network by Evelina Gabasov in which program F# was mostly used to analyse the Star wars social networks
Analyzing networks of characters in ‘Love Actually’ by David Robinson in which R was used to analyse the links between the characters of the movie Love Actually.
The aim here is to try and reproduce Evelina’s analysis using R only, using David’s contribution plus several tweaks I
found here and there on the internet. The results can be seen on this post.
Disclaimer: The original blog posts are awesome and full of relevant details, check them out!
My objective here was to teach myself how to manipulate data using trendy R packages and do some network analyses.
Some comments in the R script have been copied and pasted from these blogs, the credits entirely go to the authors Evelina and David.
Last but not least, my code comes with mistakes probably.
