layout.graphopt: The graphopt layout algorithm

In igraph: Network Analysis and Visualization

The graphopt layout algorithm

Description

layout.graphopt() was renamed to layout_with_graphopt() to create a more consistent API.

Usage

layout.graphopt(
  graph,
  start = NULL,
  niter = 500,
  charge = 0.001,
  mass = 30,
  spring.length = 0,
  spring.constant = 1,
  max.sa.movement = 5
)

Arguments

graph	The input graph.
start	If given, then it should be a matrix with two columns and one line for each vertex. This matrix will be used as starting positions for the algorithm. If not given, then a random starting matrix is used.
niter	Integer scalar, the number of iterations to perform. Should be a couple of hundred in general. If you have a large graph then you might want to only do a few iterations and then check the result. If it is not good enough you can feed it in again in the start argument. The default value is 500.
charge	The charge of the vertices, used to calculate electric repulsion. The default is 0.001.
mass	The mass of the vertices, used for the spring forces. The default is 30.
spring.length	The length of the springs, an integer number. The default value is zero.
spring.constant	The spring constant, the default value is one.
max.sa.movement	Real constant, it gives the maximum amount of movement allowed in a single step along a single axis. The default value is 5.
