comcat: Communicating Nodes

Description

Computes the between-community strength for each node in the network

Usage

comcat(A, factors = c("walktrap", "louvain"), cent = c("strength",
  "degree"), ...)

Arguments

A

An adjacency matrix of network data

factors

Can be a vector of factor assignments or community detection algorithms ("walktrap" or "louvain") can be used to determine the number of factors. Defaults to "walktrap". Set to "louvain" for louvain community detection

cent

Centrality measure to be used. Defaults to "strength".

...

Additional arguments for community detection algorithms

Value

A matrix containing the between-community strength value for each node
