findNodesToMerge

Description

Identifies the pair of nodes to merge which will minimize distinct links. Note this uses the weights, so adding multiple small links may be preferred to adding a single heavy link. Note also that the link to the merged node i.e. (A,B+C) is the has a weight that is the sum of (A,B) and (A,C). The relative proportions are not taken into account.

Usage

findNodesToMerge(df, column, weights = NULL)

Arguments

df	dataframe containing factor variables only.
column	index of the column which we are looking to merge nodes for
weights	numeric vector containing weights for each row of df.
