core.items: Core Items

In NetworkToolbox: Methods and Measures for Brain, Cognitive, and Psychometric Network Analysis

Description

Automatically determines core, intermediary, and peripheral items in the network. The entire network or within-community gradations can be determined. Based on the hybrid centrality

Usage

core.items(A, comm, by = c("network", "communities"))

Arguments

A	An adjacency matrix of network data
comm	A vector or matrix corresponding to the community each node belongs to
by	Should the core items be defined by network or communities? Defaults to "network". Set to "communities" to define core items within communities

Value

Returns a list containing:

core	Core items for each community
inter	Intermediate items for each community
peri	Peripheral items for each community

Examples

#network
# Pearson's correlation only for CRAN checks
A <- TMFG(neoOpen, normal = FALSE)$A

#core items by network
coreBYnetwork <- core.items(A, by = "network")

#theoretical factors
comm <- c(rep(1,8),rep(2,8),rep(3,8),rep(4,8),rep(5,8),rep(6,8))

#core items by communities
coreBYcomm <- core.items(A, comm, by = "communities")
