These functions offer methods for summarising the closure in configurations in one-, two-, and three-mode networks.
network_reciprocity(object, method = "default")network_transitivity(object)
network_equivalency(object)
network_congruency(object, object2)
A one-mode or two-mode matrix, igraph, or tidygraph
For reciprocity, either default or ratio.
See ?igraph::reciprocity
Optionally, a second (two-mode) matrix, igraph, or tidygraph
network_reciprocity(): Calculate reciprocity in a (usually directed) network
network_transitivity(): Calculate transitivity in a network
network_equivalency(): Calculate equivalence or reinforcement
in a (usually two-mode) network
network_congruency(): Calculate congruency across two two-mode networks
For one-mode networks, shallow wrappers of igraph versions exist via
network_reciprocity and network_transitivity.
For two-mode networks, network_equivalency calculates the proportion of three-paths in the network
that are closed by fourth tie to establish a "shared four-cycle" structure.
For three-mode networks, network_congruency calculates the proportion of three-paths
spanning two two-mode networks that are closed by a fourth tie to establish a
"congruent four-cycle" structure.
