build_exchangeable_matrix: Build an exchangeable matrix of sparseMatrix class

In netregR: Regression of Network Responses

Description

Build an exchangeable matrix of sparseMatrix class

Usage

build_exchangeable_matrix(n, phi, directed = TRUE, dyads = NULL)

Arguments

n	Number of actors in the network, scalar numeric.
phi	Appropriate-length vector of parameters, must be length 5 or 6 for directed=TRUE or length 2 or 3 for directed=FALSE.
directed	Optional logical indicator of whether input data is for a directed network, default is TRUE. Undirected data format is lower triangle of adjacencey matrix.
dyads	Optional numeric vector of dyads to subset the matrix to.

Details

This function builds a covariance matrix in the exchangeable class from the vector of parameters input. See Marrs et.al. (2017).

Value

out	Exchangeable matrix.
