measure_closure_node: Measuring node closure

In netrics: Many Ways to Measure and Classify Membership for Networks, Nodes, and Ties

Measuring node closure

Description

These functions offer methods for summarising the closure in configurations in one- and two-mode networks:

• node_by_reciprocity() measures nodes' reciprocity.

• node_by_transitivity() measures nodes' transitivity.

• node_by_equivalency() measures nodes' equivalence or reinforcement in a (usually two-mode) network.

Usage

node_by_reciprocity(.data)

node_by_transitivity(.data)

node_by_equivalency(.data)

Arguments

.data

A network object of class mnet, igraph, tbl_graph, network, or similar. For more information on the standard coercion possible, see manynet::as_tidygraph().

Details

For one-mode networks, shallow wrappers of igraph versions exist via node_by_reciprocity and node_by_transitivity.

For two-mode networks, node_by_equivalency calculates the proportion of three-paths in the network that are closed by fourth tie to establish a "shared four-cycle" structure.

Value

A node_measure numeric vector the length of the nodes in the network, providing the scores for each node. If the network is labelled, then the scores will be labelled with the nodes' names.
