graph: Utilities to manipulate graphs

In vspinu/bnlearn: Bayesian network structure learning, parameter learning and inference

Description

Check and manipulate graph-related properties of an object of class bn.

Usage

# check whether the graph is acyclic/completely directed.
acyclic(x, debug = FALSE)
directed(x)
# check whether there is a path between two nodes.
path(x, from, to, direct = TRUE, underlying.graph = FALSE, debug = FALSE)
# build the skeleton or a complete orientation of the graph.
skeleton(x)
pdag2dag(x, ordering)
# build a subgraph spanning a subset of nodes.
subgraph(x, nodes)

Arguments

x	an object of class bn. acyclic, directed and path also accept objects of class bn.fit.
from	a character string, the label of a node.
to	a character string, the label of a node (different from from).
direct	a boolean value. If FALSE ignore any arc between from and to when looking for a path.
underlying.graph	a boolean value. If TRUE the underlying undirected graph is used instead of the (directed) one from the x parameter.
ordering	the labels of all the nodes in the graph; their order is the node ordering used to set the direction of undirected arcs.
nodes	the labels of the nodes that induce the subgraph.
debug	a boolean value. If TRUE a lot of debugging output is printed; otherwise the function is completely silent.

Value

acyclic, path and directed return a boolean value.
skeleton, pdag2dag and subgraph return an object of class bn.
