In srdyal/diffusiontest: Analysis of Diffusion and Contagion Processes on Networks

Cummulative count of adopters

Description

For each time period, calculates the number of adopters, the proportion of adopters, and the adoption rate.

Usage

cumulative_adopt_count(obj)

Arguments

obj	A n\times T matrix (Cumulative adoption matrix obtained from toa_mat) or a diffnet object.

Details

The rate of adoption–returned in the 3rd row out the resulting matrix–is calculated as

\frac{q_t - q_{t-1}}{q_{t-1}}

where q_i is the number of adopters in time t. Note that it is only calculated fot t>1.

Value

A 3\times T matrix, where its rows contain the number of adoptes, the proportion of adopters and the rate of adoption respectively, for earch period of time.
