catnet (version 1.08.2)

cnCatnetFromEdges: catNetwork from Edges

Description

Creates a catNetwork object from list of nodes and edges.

Usage

cnCatnetFromEdges(nodes, edges, numCategories=2)

Arguments

nodes
a vector of node names
edges
a list of node edges
numCategories
an integer, the number of categories per node

Value

  • A catNetwork object

Details

The function uses a list of nodes and directional edges to create a catNetwork with specified (fixed) number of node categories. A random probability model is assigned, which can be changed later by cnSetProb for example. Note that cnSetProb takes a given data sample and changes both the node categories and their conditional probabilities according to it.
