Fully connected graph generator creates topic map where each topic is connected to every topic (including itself) via binary association. Properties of fully connected topic map include

  • Shortest path length between any topics is 1
  • if n is number of topics then fully connected topic map contains n * ( 1 + ((n - 1) / 2)) associations (edges). For example a fully connected graph with 100 topics has 5050 associations. Note that literature often gives you a formula n * (n - 1) / 2 for the edge count of fully connected graph. The difference between our and literature formula follow the design decision where topic may be connected to itself also.
