I had a look at GraphViz and some other tools. There seem to be some common file formats that allow data to be passed between them. e.g. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trivial_Graph_Format http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graph_Modelling_Language http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DOT_language The first one contains a list of other format. GraphViz seems to be widely used, it is also used by other software. See http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/4518

perhaps call it ft_networkwrite, in line with ft_networkanalysis. There might be some need for shared code between the two, e.g. in data handling and thresholding.

I had a look at fieldtrip, we now have mbp> ls *write* ft_sourcewrite.m ft_volumewrite.m

Hi George, Since you used Gephi in your presentation, I suspect that you have already looked at tthe file formats for interoperability. Could you please provide an initial version of an "ft_networkwrite" function? Robert

Not sure whether Georgios' esi e-mail address is still active. @G: do you intend to follow up on this? If not, I suggest to close for the time being.
