R Documentation

An API for specifying aspects of an `ergm` model in the LHS/basis network.

Description

⁠%ergmlhs%⁠ extracts the setting, while assigning to it sets or updates it.

Usage

lhs %ergmlhs% setting

## S3 method for class 'network'
lhs %ergmlhs% setting

lhs %ergmlhs% setting <- value

## S3 method for class 'network'
lhs %ergmlhs% setting <- value

convert_ergmlhs(lhs)

## S3 method for class 'ergm_lhs'
print(x, ...)

## S3 method for class 'ergm_lhs'
summary(object, ...)

## S3 method for class 'summary.ergm_lhs'
print(x, ...)

Arguments

`lhs`	a `network` intended to serve as LHS of a `ergm` call.
`setting`	a character string holding a setting's name.
`value`	value with which to overwrite the setting.

Details

The settings are stored in a named list in an "ergm" network attribute attached to the LHS network. Currently understood settings include:

response: Edge attribute to be used as the response variable, constructed from the ⁠response=⁠ argument of ergm().
constraints: Structural constraints of the network: inherited by the ⁠constraints=⁠ argument of ergm(), simulate.formula(), etc..
obs.constraints: Structural constraints of the observation process: inherited by the ⁠obs.constraints=⁠ argument of ergm(), simulate.formula(), etc..

Functions

convert_ergmlhs(): convert_ergmlhs converts old-style settings to new-style settings.
print(ergm_lhs): a print method.
summary(ergm_lhs): helper method for printing summary.
print(summary.ergm_lhs): helper method for printing summary.
