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

A convenience container for a list of network objects, output by simulate.ergm() among others.

Description

A convenience container for a list of network objects, output by simulate.ergm() among others.

Usage

network.list(object, ...)

## S3 method for class 'network.list'
print(x, stats.print = FALSE, ...)

## S3 method for class 'network.list'
summary(
  object,
  stats.print = TRUE,
  net.print = FALSE,
  net.summary = FALSE,
  ...
)

Arguments

object, x	a list of networks or a network.list object.
...	for network.list, additional attributes to be set on the network list; for others, arguments passed down to lower-level functions.
stats.print	Logical: If TRUE, print network statistics.
net.print	Logical: If TRUE, print network overviews.
net.summary	Logical: If TRUE, print network summaries.

Methods (by generic)

• print(network.list): A print() method for network lists.

• summary(network.list): A summary() method for network lists.

Note

Functions from the simulate.ergm() family can also return lists of lists of networks. In this case, they have an additional class "network.list.list". At this time, it only affects printing.

Examples

# Draw from a Bernoulli model with 16 nodes
# and tie probability 0.1
#
g.use <- network(16, density=0.1, directed=FALSE)
#
# Starting from this network let's draw 3 realizations
# of a model with edges and 2-star terms
#
g.sim <- simulate(~edges+kstar(2), nsim=3, coef=c(-1.8, 0.03),
               basis=g.use, control=control.simulate(
                 MCMC.burnin=100000,
                 MCMC.interval=1000))
print(g.sim)
summary(g.sim)
