nodes.multiplex: Extraction of the node vector

In Achab94/mplex: mplex

Description

The function allows a user-friendly method for extracting the information about selected nodes of the multiplex network.

Usage

nodes.multiplex(obj, index = 1:nrow(obj$nodes), label = FALSE)

Arguments

obj	An object of class multiplex.
index	A vector of the nodes' ID selected for the extraction. By default, the vector contains the IDs of all the nodes of the network.
label	FALSE by default. If TRUE, the function extracts only the labels of the selected nodes.

Value

A vector with the nodes selected by the index argument.

Examples

# Loading Aarhus CS Department dataset.

data(aarhus_mplex)

# Creating the multiplex object using the dataset loaded into aarhus_mplex object.

mplexObj <- create.multiplex(nodes = aarhus_mplex$nodes,
                            layersNames = aarhus_mplex$layerNames,
                            layer1 = aarhus_mplex$L1,
                            type1 = "undirected",
                            aarhus_mplex$L2,
                            aarhus_mplex$L3,
                            aarhus_mplex$L4,
                            aarhus_mplex$L5
                            )

# Extracting the information about the nodes (employees) of the network:

nodes.multiplex(mplexObj)

# Information can be extracted even for some specific nodes (their selection is
# randomized in the following example), selected with the 'indexNode' argument,
# on their label selected with 'label' argument:

nodes.multiplex(mplexObj, index = sample(1:length(nodes.multiplex(mplexObj)), 10), label = TRUE)
