plot_strategy_by_degree(degrees, population, nb_strategies, strategy_names=None, strategy_colors=None, ax=None, bins='auto', xlabel='Node degree', ylabel='Strategy frequency', title='Strategy distribution by degree')

Plot the frequency of each strategy stratified by node degree.

Useful for heterogeneous networks (e.g. Barabási–Albert scale-free graphs) to reveal whether hub nodes and peripheral nodes adopt different strategies.

Parameters:

• degrees (sequence of int) – Degree of each node (length N).

• population (sequence of int) – Current strategy of each node (length N).

• nb_strategies (int)

• strategy_names (sequence of str, optional)

• strategy_colors (sequence, optional)

• ax (matplotlib.axes.Axes, optional)

• bins (int or str) – Number of degree bins, or 'auto' to use unique degree values.

• xlabel (str)

• ylabel (str)

• title (str)

Return type:

matplotlib.axes.Axes
