ICLStochBlock: Function that computes integrated classification likelihood...

In StochBlockTest: Stochastic Blockmodeling of One-Mode and Linked Networks

Function that computes integrated classification likelihood based on stochastic one-mode and linked block modeling. If clu is a list, the method for linked/multilevel networks is applied. The support for multirelational networks is not tested.

Description

Function that computes integrated classification likelihood based on stochastic one-mode and linked block modeling. If clu is a list, the method for linked/multilevel networks is applied. The support for multirelational networks is not tested.

Usage

ICLStochBlock(
  M,
  clu,
  weights = NULL,
  uWeights = NULL,
  diagonal = c("ignore", "seperate", "same"),
  limitType = c("none", "inside", "outside"),
  limits = NULL,
  weightClusterSize = 1,
  addOne = TRUE,
  eps = 0.001
)

Arguments

M	A matrix representing the (usually valued) network. For multi-relational networks, this should be an array with the third dimension representing the relation.
clu	A partition. Each unique value represents one cluster. If the nework is one-mode, than this should be a vector, else a list of vectors, one for each mode. Similarly, if units are comprised of several sets, clu should be the list containing one vector for each set.
weights	The weights for each cell in the matrix/array. A matrix or an array with the same dimmensions as M.
uWeights	The weights for each unin. A vector with the length equal to the number of units (in all sets).
diagonal	How should the diagonal values be treated. Possible values are: ignore - diagonal values are ignored seperate - diagonal values are treated seperately same - diagonal values are treated the same as all other values
limitType	Type of limit to use. Forced to 'none' if limits is NULL. Otherwise, one of either outer or inner.
limits	If diagonal is "ignore" or "same", an array with dimensions equal to: number of clusters (of all types) number of clusters (of all types) number of relations 2 - the first is lower limit and the second is upper limit If diagonal is "seperate", a list of two array. The first should be as described above, representing limits for off diagonal values. The second should be similar with only 3 dimensions, as one of the first two must be omitted.
weightClusterSize	The weight given to cluster sizes (logprobabilites) compared to ties in loglikelihood. Defaults to 1, which is "classical" stochastic blockmodeling.
addOne	Should one tie with the value of the tie equal to the density of the superBlock be added to each block to prevent block means equal to 0 or 1 and also "shrink" the block means toward the superBlock mean. Defaults to TRUE.
eps	If addOne = FALSE, the minimal deviation from 0 or 1 that the block mean/density can take.

Examples

# Create a synthetic network matrix
set.seed(2022)
library(blockmodeling)
k<-2 # number of blocks to generate
blockSizes<-rep(20,k)
IM<-matrix(c(0.8,.4,0.2,0.8), nrow=2)
clu<-rep(1:k, times=blockSizes)
n<-length(clu)
M<-matrix(rbinom(n*n,1,IM[clu,clu]),ncol=n, nrow=n)
clu<-sample(1:2,nrow(M),replace=TRUE)
plotMat(M,clu) # Have a look at this random partition
ICL_pre<-ICLStochBlock(M,clu) # Calculate its ICL
ICL_pre
res<-stochBlock(M,clu=clu) # Optimizing the partition
plot(res) # Have a look at the optimized partition
ICL_post<-res$ICL # Calculate its ICL
ICL_post
# We expect the ICL pre-optimisation to be smaller:
ICL_pre<ICL_post
