Hypergraph Interchange Format invitation

[colltoaction]

Hi! I'm Martín and I'm a developer working in the HIF project, an effort to share hypergraphs across many libraries, developed by members of HyperNetX, XGI and other established libraries. We are looking to expand the community actively reaching out (https://github.com/pszufe/HIF-standard/issues/25) to higher-order network analysis, topological deep learning, applied category theory, and other relevant libraries.

I'm reaching out because we can benefit from sharing datasets and algorithms. It would be great to have you onboard since we're exploring an extension for temporal hypergraphs that is an interesting opportunity to collaborate. Let me know and I can give you more information. PS: we'll be at NetSci2025.

Hi @colltoaction, sorry for the slow reply!

We are certainly interested in being involved - we are currently making some large changes to both the internals of Raphtory and our storage format (moving from proto to parquet). Once these components are sorted we can take a look at this properly. Happy to hop on call at any point to discuss - drop me a line at ben(dot)steer(at)pometry(dot)com :)

Unfortuntely I won't be at NetSci this year, but @BaCk7 will be attending for us and I am sure will happy to make some schemes.

Sounds great! FYI I just sent you an email as well.
