Description

Function that generates randomly selected neighborhood vertex-layer sets to begin the multilayer.extraction algorithm.

Usage

1
initialization(adjacency, prop.sample, m, n)

Arguments

adjacency:

a list object whose tth entry is an adjacency matrix representing the tth layer of a multilayer network.

prop.sample:

the proportion of vertices one would like to search over for initialization. Example: prop.sample = 0.05 specifies that one will obtain 0.05 * n randomly selected vertex neighborhoods for initialization, where n = number of nodes in each layer.

Details

A neighborhood of vertex u is defined as the collection of vertices that have higher than the mean connectivity of vertex u, when aggregated across layers. The chosen layer set is a random sample of size m/2.
