In ergm: Fit, Simulate and Diagnose Exponential-Family Models for Networks

Calculate geodesic distance distribution for a network or edgelist

Description

ergm.geodistdist calculates geodesic distance distribution for a given network and returns it as a vector.

ergm.geodistn calculates geodesic deistance distribution based on an input edgelist, and has very little error checking so should not normally be called by users. The C code requires the edgelist to be directed and sorted correctly.

Usage

ergm.geodistdist(nw, directed = is.directed(nw))

ergm.geodistn(edgelist, n = max(edgelist), directed = FALSE)

Arguments

nw	network object over which distances should be calculated
directed	logical, should the network be treated as directed
edgelist	an edgelist representation of a network as an mx2 matrix
n	integer, size of the network

Details

ergm.geodistdist is a network wrapper for ergm.geodistn, which calculates and returns the geodesic distance distribution for a given network via full_geodesic_distribution.C

Value

a vector ans with length equal to the size of the network where

• ⁠ans[i], i=1, ..., n-1⁠ is the number of pairs of geodesic length i

• ans[n] is the number of pairs of geodesic length infinity.
