Description Terms used in Schmid, Chen, and Desmarais (2020)
This page documents the terms that can be used for fitting exponential random graph models of citation networks using the function cergm
from the cergm
package.
The terms included here are used in the same manner as ergm-terms
from the base ergm
package. This means that in addition to fitting ERGMs, they can be used for network simulation (simulate.ergm
) and assessing goodness-of-fit (mcmc.diagnostics
and gof
).
This set of network terms are used in Schmid, Chen, and Desmarais, 2020. “Generative Dynamics of Supreme Court Citations: Analysis with a New Statistical Network Model”. (https://github.com/desmarais-lab/Supreme_Court_Citation_Network)
