Soil Tutorial¶
Introduction¶
This notebook is an introduction to the soil agent-based social network simulation framework. In particular, we will focus on a specific use case: studying the propagation of news in a social network.
The steps we will follow are:
- Modelling the behavior of agents
- Running the simulation using different configurations
- Analysing the results of each simulation
But before that, let’s import the soil module and networkx.
import soil
import networkx as nx

Basic concepts¶
There are three main elements in a soil simulation:
- The network topology. A simulation may use an existing NetworkX topology, or generate one on the fly
- Agents. There are two types: 1) network agents, which are linked to a node in the topology, and 2) environment agents, which are freely assigned to the environment.
- The environment. It assigns agents to nodes in the network, and stores the environment parameters (shared state for all agents).
Soil is based on simpy, which is an event-based network simulation
library. Soil provides several abstractions over events to make
developing agents easier. This means you can use events (timeouts,
delays) in soil, but for the most part we will assume your models will
be step-based.
Modeling behaviour¶
Our first step will be to model how every person in the social network reacts when it comes to news. We will follow a very simple model (a finite state machine).
There are two types of people, those who have heard about a newsworthy event (infected) or those who have not (neutral). A neutral person may heard about the news either on the TV (with probability prob_tv_spread) or through their friends. Once a person has heard the news, they will spread it to their friends (with a probability prob_neighbor_spread). Some users do not have a TV, so they only rely on their friends.
The spreading probabilities will change over time due to different factors. We will represent this variance using an environment agent.
Network Agents¶
A basic network agent in Soil would typically inherit from
soil.agents.NetworkAgent, and define its behaviour in every step of
the simulation by implementing a run(self) method. The most
important attributes of the agent are:
agent.state, a dictionary with the state of the agent. This tate will be saved in every step of the simulation. It can be accessed from the agent as well:
a = soil.agents.NetworkAgent(env=env)
agent.state['hours_of_sleep'] = 10
# is the same as
a['hours_of_sleep'] = 10
The state of the agent is stored in every step of the simulation:
py print(a['hours_of_sleep', 10]) # hours of sleep before step #10 print(a[None, 0]) # whole state of the agent before step #0
agent.env, a reference to the environment. Most commonly used to get access to the environment parameters and the topology: ```py a.env.G.nodes() # Get all nodes ids in the topology a.env[‘minimum_hours_of_sleep’]```
Since our model is a finite state machine, we will be basing it on
soil.agents.FSM.
Agents that inherit from soil.agents.FSM do not need to specify a
step method. Instead, we describe each finite state with a function.
To change to another state, a function may return the new state, or the
id of a state. If no state is returned, the state remains unchanged.
The current state of the agent can be checked with
agent.state['id']. That state id can be used to look for other
networks in that specific state
Our agent will have of two states, neutral (default) and
infected.
Here’s the code:
import random
class NewsSpread(soil.agents.FSM):
@soil.agents.default_state
@soil.agents.state
def neutral(self):
r = random.random()
if self['has_tv'] and r <= self.env['prob_tv_spread']:
return self.infected
return
@soil.agents.state
def infected(self):
prob_infect = self.env['prob_neighbor_spread']
for neighbor in self.get_neighboring_agents(state_id=self.neutral.id):
r = random.random()
if r < prob_infect:
neighbor.set_state(self.infected.id)
return
Environment agents¶
Environment agents allow us to control the state of the environment. In this case, we will use an environment agent to simulate a very viral event.
When the event happens, the agent will modify the probability of spreading the rumor.
NEIGHBOR_FACTOR = 0.9
TV_FACTOR = 0.5
class NewsEnvironmentAgent(soil.agents.NetworkAgent):
def step(self):
if self.now == self['event_time']:
self.env['prob_tv_spread'] = 1
self.env['prob_neighbor_spread'] = 1
elif self.now > self['event_time']:
self.env['prob_tv_spread'] = self.env['prob_tv_spread'] * TV_FACTOR
self.env['prob_neighbor_spread'] = self.env['prob_neighbor_spread'] * NEIGHBOR_FACTOR
Testing the agents¶
Feel free to skip this section if this is your first time with soil.
Testing agents is not easy, and this is not a thorough testing process for agents. Rather, this section is aimed to show you how to access internal pats of soil so you can test your agents.
First of all, let’s check if our network agent has the states we would expect:
NewsSpread.states
{'neutral': <function __main__.NewsSpread.neutral(self)>,
'infected': <function __main__.NewsSpread.infected(self)>}
Now, let’s run a simulation on a simple network. It is comprised of three nodes:
G = nx.Graph()
G.add_edge(0, 1)
G.add_edge(0, 2)
G.add_edge(2, 3)
G.add_node(4)
pos = nx.spring_layout(G)
nx.draw_networkx(G, pos, node_color='red')
nx.draw_networkx(G, pos, nodelist=[0], node_color='blue')
Let’s run a simple simulation that assigns a NewsSpread agent to all the nodes in that network. Notice how node 0 is the only one with a TV.
import importlib
importlib.reload(soil.agents)
<module 'soil.agents' from '/mnt/data/home/j/git/lab.gsi/soil/soil/soil/agents/__init__.py'>
env_params = {
'prob_tv_spread': 0,
'prob_neighbor_spread': 0
}
MAX_TIME = 100
EVENT_TIME = 10
sim = soil.Simulation(topology=G,
num_trials=1,
max_time=MAX_TIME,
environment_agents=[{'agent_type': NewsEnvironmentAgent,
'state': {
'event_time': EVENT_TIME
}}],
network_agents=[{'agent_type': NewsSpread,
'weight': 1}],
states={0: {'has_tv': True}},
default_state={'has_tv': False},
environment_params=env_params)
env = sim.run_simulation(dry_run=True)[0]
Now we can access the results of the simulation and compare them to our expected results
agents = list(env.network_agents)
# Until the event, all agents are neutral
for t in range(10):
for a in agents:
assert a['state_id', t] == a.neutral.id
# After the event, the node with a TV is infected, the rest are not
assert agents[0]['has_tv']
assert agents[0]['state_id', 11] == NewsSpread.infected.id
assert not agents[2]['has_tv']
assert agents[2]['state_id', 11] == NewsSpread.neutral.id
# At the end, the agents connected to the infected one will probably be infected, too.
assert agents[1]['state_id', MAX_TIME] == NewsSpread.infected.id
assert agents[2]['state_id', MAX_TIME] == NewsSpread.infected.id
# But the node with no friends should not be affected
assert agents[4]['state_id', MAX_TIME] == NewsSpread.neutral.id
Lastly, let’s see if the probabilities have decreased as expected:
assert abs(env.environment_params['prob_neighbor_spread'] - (NEIGHBOR_FACTOR**(MAX_TIME-1-10))) < 10e-4
assert abs(env.environment_params['prob_tv_spread'] - (TV_FACTOR**(MAX_TIME-1-10))) < 10e-6
Running the simulation¶
To run a simulation, we need a configuration. Soil can load configurations from python dictionaries as well as JSON and YAML files. For this demo, we will use a python dictionary:
config = {
'name': 'ExampleSimulation',
'max_time': 20,
'interval': 1,
'num_trials': 1,
'network_params': {
'generator': 'complete_graph',
'n': 500,
},
'network_agents': [
{
'agent_type': NewsSpread,
'weight': 1,
'state': {
'has_tv': False
}
},
{
'agent_type': NewsSpread,
'weight': 2,
'state': {
'has_tv': True
}
}
],
'environment_agents':[
{'agent_type': NewsEnvironmentAgent,
'state': {
'event_time': 10
}
}
],
'states': [ {'has_tv': True} ],
'environment_params':{
'prob_tv_spread': 0.01,
'prob_neighbor_spread': 0.5
}
}
Let’s run our simulation:
soil.simulation.run_from_config(config, dry_run=True)
In real life, you probably want to run several simulations, varying some of the parameters so that you can compare and answer your research questions.
For instance:
- Does the outcome depend on the structure of our network? We will use different generation algorithms to compare them (Barabasi-Albert and Erdos-Renyi)
- How does neighbor spreading probability affect my simulation? We will try probability values in the range of [0, 0.4], in intervals of 0.1.
network_1 = {
'generator': 'erdos_renyi_graph',
'n': 500,
'p': 0.1
}
network_2 = {
'generator': 'barabasi_albert_graph',
'n': 500,
'm': 2
}
for net in [network_1, network_2]:
for i in range(5):
prob = i / 10
config['environment_params']['prob_neighbor_spread'] = prob
config['network_params'] = net
config['name'] = 'Spread_{}_prob_{}'.format(net['generator'], prob)
s = soil.simulation.run_from_config(config, exporters=['default', 'csv'])
The results are conveniently stored in sqlite (history of agent and environment state) and the configuration is saved in a YAML file.
You can also export the results to GEXF format (dynamic network) and CSV
using .run_from_config(config, dump=['gexf', 'csv']) or the
command line flags --graph --csv.

Analysing the results¶
Loading data¶
Once the simulations are over, we can use soil to analyse the results.
Soil allows you to load results for specific trials, or for a set of trials if you specify a pattern. The specific methods are:
analysis.read_data(<directory pattern>)to load all the results from a directory. e.g.read_data('my_simulation/'). For each trial it finds in each folder matching the pattern, it will return the dumped configuration for the simulation, the results of the trial, and the configuration itself. By default, it will try to load data from the sqlite database.analysis.read_csv(<csv_file>)to load all the results from a CSV file. e.g.read_csv('my_simulation/my_simulation_trial0.environment.csv')analysis.read_sql(<sqlite_file>)to load all the results from a sqlite database . e.g.read_sql('my_simulation/my_simulation_trial0.db.sqlite')
Let’s see it in action by loading the stored results into a pandas dataframe:
from soil import analysis
import pandas as pd
df = analysis.read_csv('soil_output/Spread_barabasi_albert_graph_prob_0.0/Spread_barabasi_albert_graph_prob_0.0_trial_0.csv')

Soil can also process the data for us and split the results into environment attributes and agent attributes:
env, agents = analysis.split_processed(df)

The index of the results are the simulation step. Hence, we can access the state of the simulation at a given step (e.g., 13):
agents.loc[13, 'state_id']
agent_id
0 infected
1 infected
10 infected
100 infected
101 infected
...
95 infected
96 infected
97 infected
98 infected
99 infected
Name: 13.0, Length: 500, dtype: object
Or, we can perform more complex tasks such as showing the agents that have changed their state between two simulation steps (2 and 1):
(agents.loc[2]['state_id'] != agents.loc[1]['state_id']).sum()
2
To focus on specific agents, we can swap the levels of the index:
agents.swaplevel(axis=1)
| agent_id | 0 | 1 | 10 | 100 | 101 | 102 | 103 | 104 | 105 | 106 | ... | 90 | 91 | 92 | 93 | 94 | 95 | 96 | 97 | 98 | 99 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| key | alive | alive | alive | alive | alive | alive | alive | alive | alive | alive | ... | state_id | state_id | state_id | state_id | state_id | state_id | state_id | state_id | state_id | state_id |

Plotting data¶
If you don’t want to work with pandas, you can also use some pre-defined functions from soil to conveniently plot the results:
analysis.plot_all('soil_output/Spread_barabasi_albert_graph_prob_0.0/', analysis.get_count, 'state_id');
analysis.plot_all('soil_output/Spread_barabasi_albert_graph_prob_0.3/', analysis.get_count, 'state_id');
You can use wildcards in the results path:
analysis.plot_all('soil_output/Spread_barabasi*/', analysis.get_count, 'state_id');
If we compare these results to those of the other graph model (a fully-connected graph), we can see a stark difference:
analysis.plot_all('soil_output/Spread_erdos*', analysis.get_count, 'state_id');
The previous cells were using the count_value function for
aggregation. There’s another function to plot numeral values:
analysis.plot_all('soil_output/Spread_erdos*', analysis.get_value, 'prob_tv_spread');
Manually plotting with pandas¶
Although the simplest way to visualize the results of a simulation is to use the built-in methods in the analysis module, sometimes the setup is more complicated and we need to explore the data a little further.
For that, we can use native pandas over the results.
Soil provides some convenience methods to simplify common operations:
analysis.split_dfto separate a history dataframe into environment and agent parameters.analysis.get_countto get a dataframe with the value counts for different attributes during the simulation.analysis.get_valueto get the evolution of the value of an attribute during the simulation.
And, as we saw earlier, analysis.process can turn a dataframe in
canonical form into a dataframe with a column per attribute.

Let’s look at the evolution of agent parameters in the simulation
df.plot()
<Axes: xlabel='t_step'>
As we can see, event_time and interval are cluttering our
results,
del df['interval']
del df['event_time']
df.plot()
<Axes: xlabel='t_step'>
The soil.analysis module also provides convenient functions to count
the number of agents in a given state:
analysis.get_count(agents, 'state_id').plot();
Dealing with bigger data¶
from soil import analysis
!du -xsh ../rabbits/soil_output/rabbits_example/
1.1M ../rabbits/soil_output/rabbits_example/
If we tried to load the entire history, we would probably run out of memory. Hence, it is recommended that you also specify the attributes you are interested in.
p = analysis.plot_all('../rabbits/soil_output/rabbits_example/', analysis.get_count, 'state_id')
!ls ../rabbits/soil_output/rabbits_example
backup rabbits_example.sqlite
rabbits_example.dumped.yml rabbits_example_trial_0.sqlite
df = analysis.read_sql('../rabbits/soil_output/rabbits_example/rabbits_example_trial_0.sqlite', keys=['state_id', 'rabbits_alive'])
