control.gof: Auxiliary for Controlling ERGM Goodness-of-Fit Evaluation

Description

Auxiliary function as user interface for fine-tuning ERGM Goodness-of-Fit Evaluation.

Usage

control.gof.formula(prop.weights = "default", prop.args = NULL, drop =
TRUE, summarizestats = FALSE, maxchanges = 1e+06)
control.gof.ergm(prop.weights = NULL, prop.args = NULL, drop = TRUE, summarizestats = FALSE, maxchanges = 1e+06)

Arguments

prop.weights

Specifies the method to allocate probabilities of being proposed to dyads. For the simulate.formula variant, defaults to "default", which picks a reasonable default for the

prop.args

An alternative, direct way of specifying additional arguments to proposal.

drop

logical; Should the degenerate terms in the model be dropped from the fit? If statistics occur on the extreme of their range they correspond to infinite parameter estimates. Default is TRUE.

summarizestats

logical; Print out a summary of the sufficient statistics of the generated network. This is useful as a diagnostic. Default is FALSE.

maxchanges

Currently unused.

Value

• A list with arguments as components.
