In SPDSdeCarolina/CoherencePack: Functions to perform ECHO algorithm and test coherence

Description

Finds the difference in activation values between nodes in a normal coherence network and one where the value of one of the nodes has be held at a fixed activation value

Usage

CohDiff(coh.matrix, data.node.id, fixed.node.id, fixed.act.lvl)

Arguments

coh.matrix	a amatrix holding the weights of the links in the system of arguments whose coherence you are trying to maximize
data.node.id	the index of the the special observation unit
fixed.node.id	a numeric value representing the index of the node whose activation you are holding at a fixed value
fixed.act.val	the value, usually -1 or 1, at which you are holding the activation level of the node represented by fixed.node.id

Value

A vector of the difference between the activation values of the propositions in coh.matrix and the activation values one gets when the fix the activation value of a node in the network.
