Graphoendodonticology

What's this blog post about?

The text discusses analogies between medical diagnoses and treatments and graphical diagnoses and treatments. It highlights the importance of leveraging patient symptoms and vitals in determining the nature of an individual's affliction/disease, whether it be a human or a graph system. Vitals are defined as functions that map a person to a value, such as age, heart rate, blood pressure, weight, and height. Graphs can also have vitals like vertex count, edge count, and degree distribution. The text further explains the growth of graphs using different models: lattice graphs, scale-free graphs, and random graphs. It emphasizes that understanding the relationship between structure and process is crucial in diagnosing potential performance issues in graph applications.
