NS_Multinomial: Calculate network statistic and covariance matrix.

Description Usage Arguments Value Examples

View source: R/CCMnet_simulate_data.R

Description

Calculate network statistic and covariance matrix, which is based on a multinomial distribution. Each unit (either node or edge) in the network is assumed to be sampled from a multinomial distribution based on probabilities associated with the network statistic.

NS_Multinomial(g,
		   Network_stats, 
		   mean_inflate = 0, 
		   var_inflate = 1,
		   covPattern = NULL
		 )

Arguments

g

a network object.

Network_stats

Either 'DegreeDist' or 'DegMixing'.

mean_inflate

Add small amount to remove zero values from degree mixing matrix entries.

var_inflate

Multiply the variance by a constant. Used to avoid signular covariance matrices.

covPattern

Currently not used.

Value

A list of length 2 containing:

Network Statistic

Network statistic of the inputted network.

Covariance

Covariance matrix for the network statistic; assumes each unit (either node or edge) is sampled from a multinomial distribution based on probabilities derived from the network statistic.
