convert: Convert graph to format associated with specific package

In rje42/MixedGraphs: Mixed Graphs and Graphical Models

Convert graph to format associated with specific package

Description

Convert graph to format associated with specific package

Usage

convert(graph, format = "mixedgraph", cur_format, ...)

Arguments

graph	graphical object, of one of classes listed below
format	character string giving new format to convert to
cur_format	character string of current format; can be deduced from the object in many cases
...	other arguments

Details

Possible formats are

• mixedgraph

• ggm, an adjacency matrix as specified in the ggm package;

• graphNEL, graphAM, graphBAM from the graph package;

• igraph;

• PAG: that is, the output of pc() or fci() functions in the pcalg package;

• bn from the bnlearn package;

• ADMG, from the ADMGs package.

The function can recognise the class of objects other than "ggm", which is just an adjacency matrix.

Implemented natively thus far:

• mixedgraph <-> ggm

• mixedgraph <-> ADMG

• mixedgraph <-> graphNEL

• mixedgraph <-> graphAM

• mixedgraph <-> graphBAM

• mixedgraph <-> PAG

• mixedgraph <-> bn

• mixedgraph <-> igraph (goes mixedgraph -> graphNEL -> igraph)

• graphNEL <-> igraph (using functions in the igraph package)

• graphNEL, graphAM <-> bn (using functions in the bnlearn package)

ggm entries must be specified by cur_format = "ggm". PAG objects are those whose class inherits from gAlgo, or an adjacency matrix if cur_format = "PAG" is specified.
