network.sign: Create Signed Network Object

Description

Turn adjacency matrices or edgelists into static or dynamic signed networks.

Usage

network.sign(
  mat = NULL,
  pos.mat = NULL,
  neg.mat = NULL,
  directed = FALSE,
  loops = FALSE,
  matrix.type = c("adjacency", "edgelist"),
  vertex.names = NULL,
  vertex.attr = NULL,
  dual.sign = FALSE,
  timepoints = NULL,
  tie.breaker = c("zero", "positive", "negative", "first", "last"),
  ...
)

Value

A signed network of class `static.sign` or `dynamic.sign`.

Arguments

mat: (List of) signed adjacency matrices or edgelists. For dynamic networks, provide a list. Adjacency matrices must contain only -1, 0, or 1. Edgelists must have three columns: "From", "To", and "Sign".
pos.mat: Optional. Positive adjacency matrix or list of matrices.
neg.mat: Optional. Negative adjacency matrix or list of matrices. If provided, these are treated as two separate layers of the same network.
directed: Logical; should edges be interpreted as directed? Defaults to FALSE.
loops: Logical; should loops be allowed? Defaults to FALSE.
matrix.type: Either "adjacency" or "edgelist".
vertex.names: Optional. A vector or list of vertex names.
vertex.attr: Optional. Additional vertex attributes.
dual.sign: Logical. Allow positive and negative edges simultaneously between the same pair.
timepoints: Optional. Pooling definition for dynamic networks.
tie.breaker: How to resolve ties when pooling signed matrices.
...: Additional arguments passed to `network::network`.
