NetworkCreateR: NetworkCreateR

In MetaboLouise: METABOlomics LOngitudinal SimUlation Engine

Description

This function creates a fictional metabolomics network according to the Barabasi-Albert model.

Usage

NetworkCreateR(N, BA_power = 0.5, BA_mValue = 4, plothist = TRUE,
  histbreaks = 50, ...)

Arguments

N	the number of nodes in the network (metabolites)
BA_power	(igrap parameter) The power of the preferential attachment.
BA_mValue	(igrap parameter) The number of edges to add in each time step
plothist	Whether to plot a histogram of the network's connectivity distribution
histbreaks	The number of breaks in the histogram
...	Optional additional arguments to be passed along to the network generator function sample_pa.

Value

A matrix with the network structure
