Node / Vertice / Player
Node or player (in network
Network science will most often use the term Vertice (abbreviation: V) and computer science in Node.
In the social sciences they will most often use the term actor.
And
Edge / Connection
Arc or connection (abbreviated: E) between two nodes, to produce a network or graph.
Network
Graph
Network
graph
A network (or G: for short) is connections between nodes as the essence of each similar node (e.g. "people") and the essence of each similar arc (e.g., "encounters"). A graph is most often the visual representation of a network of connections.
Attributed Network
Attributed Graph
Tagged network
Tagged graph
A graph in which nodes / arcs have a label. Example
And
bipartite graph
A graph with 2 types of nodes, with type X nodes being related to type Y nodes, for example, a network of connections between people and workplaces.
And
Heterogeneous Network / Semantic Network
Heterogeneous Graph / Semantic Graph
Heterogeneous network / semantic network
Heterogeneous graph / Semantic graph
A network in which the nodes are fundamentally different from each other or the arcs are fundamentally different from each other (or both),
For example: a network with "people" and "places" nodes. A network with arches of the "meeting" and "family ties" type.
In computer networks, the term heterogeneous network (abbreviated: HetNet) is used for a network with different devices that use different protocols.
And
Multilayer Network
Multilayer Graph
A network consisting of several networks.
The connections between the networks can be between
