ash_model.paths.average_s_distance

ash_model.paths.average_s_distance(h, s, start=None, end=None, weight=False, edge=True)

Compute the average shortest-path length in the s-line-graph.

Parameters:

• h (ASH) – ASH instance.

• s (int) – Minimum overlap size.

• start (int | None) – Start time bound.

• end (int | None) – End time bound.

• weight (bool) – Use edge weight attribute ‘w’ if True (unused here).

• edge (bool) – (Unused) Included for API consistency.

Returns:

Average distance across all connected pairs.

Return type:

float
