backbone (version 1.0.0)

hyperg: Compute hypergeometric backbone

Description

`hyperg` computes the probability of observing a higher or lower edge weight using the hypergeometric distribution. Once computed, use backbone.extract to return the backbone matrix for a given alpha value.

Usage

hyperg(B)

Arguments

B

Matrix: Bipartite network

Value

list(positive, negative). positive gives matrix of probability of ties above the observed value. negative gives matrix of probability of ties below the observed value.
