In hglasso: Learning Graphical Models with Hubs

Fit the hub graphical lasso, hub covariance graph, and hub binary network

Description

This package is called hglasso, for "hub graphical lasso". It implements three methods:hub graphical lasso, hub covariance graph, and hub binary network. All are described in the paper "Learning graphical models with hubs", by Tan et al. (2014).

The main functions are as follows: (1) hglasso (2) hcov (3) hbn

The first function, hglasso, performs hub graphical lasso. The second function, hcov, performs hub covariance graph estimation. The third function, hbn, performs hub binary network estimation.

Examples

##############################################
# Example from Figure 1 in the manuscript
# A toy example to illustrate the results from 
# Hub Graphical Lasso
##############################################
#library(mvtnorm)
#set.seed(1)
#n=100
#p=100

# A network with 4 hubs
#network<-HubNetwork(p,0.99,4,0.1)
#Theta <- network$Theta
#truehub <- network$hubcol
# The four hub nodes have indices 14, 42, 45, 78
#print(truehub)

# Generate data matrix x
#x <- rmvnorm(n,rep(0,p),solve(Theta))
#x <- scale(x)

# Run Hub Graphical Lasso to estimate the inverse covariance matrix
# res1<-hglasso(cov(x),0.3,0.3,1.5)

# print out a summary of the object hglasso
#summary(res1)
# we see that the estimated hub nodes have indices 14, 42, 45, 78
# We successfully recover the 4 hub nodes

# Plot the matrices V and Z 
#image(res1)
#dev.off()
# Plot a graphical representation of the estimated inverse
# covariance matrix --- conditional independence graph
#plot(res1,main="Conditional Independence Graph")
