NetworkDistance

NetworkDistance package is a collection of inter-graph distance measures. Instead of graph distance that measures the degree of farness between nodes within a graph, we consider each network as an object and compute distance between those objects.

Installation

You can install the released version of NetworkDistance from CRAN with:

install.packages("NetworkDistance")

or the development version from github:

## install.packages("devtools")
## library(devtools)
devtools::install_github("kisungyou/NetworkDistance")

Currently Available Methods

We support following methds at this stage and the collection will be expanded continuously.
