------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Pajek network converted to sparse adjacency matrix for inclusion in UF sparse
matrix collection, Tim Davis. For Pajek datasets, See V. Batagelj & A. Mrvar,
http://vlado.fmf.uni-lj.si/pub/networks/data/. This is the "Days" network.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Reuters terror news network is based on all stories released during 66
consecutive days by the news agency Reuters concerning the September 11 attack
on the U.S., beginning at 9:00 AM EST 9/11/01. The vertices of a network are
words (terms); there is an edge between two words iff they appear in the same
text unit (sentence). The weight of an edge is its frequency. The network has
n=13332 vertices (different words in the news) and m = 243447 edges, 50859
with value larger than 1. There are no loops in the network.

When converted to a sparse adjacency matrix for the UF Sparse Matrix
Collection, Day{i} is the graph of the ith day. The diagonal entry
Day{i}(k,k) is 1 if word k appears in any news on the ith day. Note
that it may not appear in conjunction with other words in the same
sentence on that day. The sum of nnz(tril(Day{i})) for i=1:66 is 243,447.
The overall matrix A is the sum of the Day{i} matrices. A(i,j) is the number
of times words i and j appear in same sentence (for i not equal to j). A(k,k)
is the number of days the word k appears in any news report.
Note that this network has been renamed to Reuters911 here.
