BiMat

BiMat is a MATLAB library whose main function is the analysis of modularity and nestedness in bipartite ecological networks. Its main features are:

• Modularity and nestedness calculation.
• Diversity calculation using Shannon and Simpson's indexes.
• Different null models for the creation of random bipartite networks.
• Statistics of the network.
• Internal statistics of the modules (multi-scale analysis).
• Group statistical analysis (analysis of many networks).
• Parallel processing for improving the speed during a statistical analysis.
• Plotting in matrix or graph layouts.
