actor_movie — IMDb actor-movie network (1999)
- Description
A bipartite network of movies and the actors who appeared in them, extracted from the Internet Movie Database (IMDb) and distributed by the network research group of A.-L. Barabási (then at the University of Notre Dame). Nodes are movies and actors, and an edge connects an actor to a movie in which the actor appeared. These are the data used by A.-L. Barabási and R. Albert to construct the movie actor collaboration network (two actors are connected if they were cast together in the same movie), one of the networks for which they reported a power-law degree distribution. The source file lists the actors of each movie, with actors identified by numbers. It contains 127,823 movies and 383,640 actors, connected by 1,470,404 appearances; 14 actors listed twice for the same movie are included only once, so there are no multiple edges. Nodes are anonymous (no names are given).
The network has the following properties:
- Nodes:
is_actor, whether the node is an actor (otherwise it is a movie);id, the number of the actor in the source file, or the line number of the movie (starting at 0).
