robinCompareFast: robinCompareFast

In robin: ROBustness in Network

robinCompareFast

Description

This function compares two community detection algorithms. Is the parallelized and faster version of robinCompare

Usage

robinCompareFast(
  graph,
  method1 = c("walktrap", "edgeBetweenness", "fastGreedy", "leadingEigen", "louvain",
    "spinglass", "labelProp", "infomap", "optimal", "other"),
  method2 = c("walktrap", "edgeBetweenness", "fastGreedy", "leadingEigen", "louvain",
    "spinglass", "labelProp", "infomap", "optimal", "other"),
  measure = c("vi", "nmi", "split.join", "adjusted.rand"),
  ncores = 2,
  FUN1 = NULL,
  FUN2 = NULL,
  directed = FALSE,
  weights = NULL,
  steps = 4,
  spins = 25,
  e.weights = NULL,
  v.weights = NULL,
  nb.trials = 10,
  verbose = TRUE
)

Arguments

graph	The output of prepGraph.
method1	The first clustering method, one of "walktrap", "edgeBetweenness", "fastGreedy", "louvain", "spinglass", "leadingEigen", "labelProp", "infomap","optimal".
method2	The second custering method one of "walktrap", "edgeBetweenness","fastGreedy", "louvain", "spinglass", "leadingEigen", "labelProp", "infomap","optimal".
measure	The stability measure, one of "vi", "nmi", "split.join", "adjusted.rand" all normalized and used as distances. "nmi" refers to 1- nmi and "adjusted.ran" refers to 1-adjusted.rand.
ncores	number of CPU cores to use.(default is 2) For a faster execution we suggest to use ncores=(detectCores(logical = FALSE)-1)
FUN1	personal designed function when method1 is "others". see methodCommunity.
FUN2	personal designed function when method2 is "others". see methodCommunity.
directed	This argument is settable only for "edgeBetweenness" method.
weights	This argument is not settable for "infomap" method.
steps	This argument is settable only for "leadingEigen"and"walktrap" method.
spins	This argument is settable only for "infomap" method.
e.weights	This argument is settable only for "infomap" method.
v.weights	This argument is settable only for "infomap" method.
nb.trials	This argument is settable only for "infomap" method.
verbose	flag for verbose output (default as TRUE).

Value

A list object with two matrices: - the matrix "Mean1" with the means of the procedure for the first method - the matrix "Mean2" with the means of the procedure for the second method

Examples

my_file <- system.file("example/football.gml", package="robin")
graph <- prepGraph(file=my_file, file.format="gml")
robinCompareFast(graph=graph, method1="louvain", 
method2="fastGreedy", measure="vi")
