spread: Calculate radiality centrality
Description
Calculate radiality centrality
Usage
spread(graph, mode = c("all", "in", "out"),
weights = E(graph)$weight, f = function(x) 1/x)Arguments
- graph
an igraph object
- mode
mode of the centrality
- weights
If edges in the graph have weight, then by default, the weight is used to calculate the length of the shortest path. Set it to NULL to supress the weight
- f
function for the weaken rate
Details
The spread centrality measures how wide the node can send or receive the information in the network.
Like the water wave, the effect would be weakened with the increase of the distance to other nodes.
