twostarL-ergmTerm-57211220: Multilayer two-star

In ergm.multi: Fit, Simulate and Diagnose Exponential-Family Models for Multiple or Multilayer Networks

Multilayer two-star

Description

This term adds one statistic to the model, equal to the number of cross-layer two-stars or two-paths in the network.

Usage

# binary: twostarL(Ls, type, distinct=TRUE)

Arguments

Ls	a list (constructed by list() or c() of two Layer Logic specifications (c.f. Layer Logic section in the Layer() documentation) specifying the layers of interest.
type	determines what is counted: "any" Number of configurations (i-j), (i-k) , where (i-j) is in logical layer Ls[[1]] and (i-k) is in logical layer Ls[[2]] . "out" Number of configurations (i{\rightarrow}j), (i{\rightarrow}k), where (i{\rightarrow}j) is in logical layer Ls[[1]] and (i{\rightarrow}k) is in logical layer Ls[[2]]. "in" Number of configurations (j{\rightarrow}i), (k{\rightarrow}i), where (j{\rightarrow}i) is in logical layer Ls[[1]] and (k{\rightarrow}i) is in logical layer Ls[[2]]. "path" Number of configurations (j{\rightarrow}i), (i{\rightarrow}k), where (j{\rightarrow}i) is in logical layer Ls[[1]] and (i{\rightarrow}k) is in logical layer Ls[[2]]. At this time, "any" is only supported for undirected networks, and if the network is undirected, type is ignored and "any" is assumed.
distinct	if TRUE, j and k above are required to be distinct. That is, the constituent edges may not be coincident or reciprocal.
