Network_stats |
A vector of network statistics used to generate networks. Currently implemented network statistics are the following: “Density” (Network Density), “DegreeDist” (Degree Distribution), “DegMixing” (Degree Mixing Matrix), and “Triangles” (Number of 3-cycles). |
Prob_Distr |
A vector of probability distributions; one distribution for each network statistic in Network_stats. Currently implemented probability distributions are: “Normal” and “DirMult”. DirMult (Dirichlet-multinomial) is currently only implemented for degree distribution. |
Prob_Distr_Params |
A list of lists. Each list in the list corresponds to a network statistic in Network_stats. Each list gives the parameters for the associated probability distribution in Prob_Distr. The normal distribution requires a list of length 2 containing a mean vector and covariance matrix. The Dirichlet-multinomial requires a list of length 1 containing the alpha vector. |
samplesize |
Number of networks simulated. |
burnin |
MCMC burnin. |
interval |
Thinning of MCMC. |
statsonly |
If TRUE, returns only the network statistics of the simulated network, plus the last simulated network. If FALSE returns the network statistics and simulated networks. |
P |
If P is specified, it will be used as the initial starting network for the MCMC; otherwise, a random graph will be used as the initial starting network. |
population |
Number of nodes in simulated networks. |
covPattern |
Covariate Pattern of each node in network. Currently only a maximum of two covariate patterns, labeled 1 and 2, are allowed. |
remove_var_last_entry |
Removes the last row and column of the covariance matrix. |
Simulates networks of fixed network size given a probability distribution on network statistics. Uses an algorithm from Goyal et al. and partially based on C code from Handcock et al. (2012). Also incorporates an ergm-term coded by Nicole Bohme Carnegie (carnegie@hsph.harvard.edu).
Not all combinations of network statistics and probability distributions are currently implemented; additional combinations will be implemented in later releases. Below we list all implemented combinations.

DegreeDist: (Normal) and (DirMult)
