In strategicplayers: Strategic Players

distance

Description

Takes in the geodesic distances, targets, avoiders, a parameter that prioritizes avoiding vs targetting, and the current players and returns the strategic players distance metric

Usage

distance(gd, targets, avoiders, theta, players)

Arguments

gd	a matrix of geodesic distances for the network of interest
targets	a vector of indicies of the people you want to spread the intervention to
avoiders	a vector of indicies of the people you don't want to spread the intervention to
theta	a number between 0 and 1 which weights the distance metric, 1 only prioritizes closeness to targets, 0 only prioritizes maximizing distance from avoiders
players	the indicies of people who you have chosen for the intervention (a subset of targets)

Value

returns the distance metric for strategic players, which we want to maximize
