Learn R Programming
⚠️There's a newer version (0.1.5) of this package.Take me there.

influenceR

influenceR: Software tools to quantify structural importance of nodes in a network. Algorithms include Betweenness Centrality, Bridging, Constraint Index, Effective Network Size, and Key Players. Currently, algorithms are implemented only for undirected graphs; work on directed graphs is in progress.

Functions in influenceR (0.1.0)

csv.to.igraph

Convert a CSV file to an igraph graph object.
constraint

Burt's Constraint Index.
influenceR

influenceR: Software tools to quantify structural importance of nodes in a network.
bridging

Valente's Bridging vertex measure.
betweenness

Vertex Betweenness centrality measure.
ens

Burt's Effective Network Size and Constraint index. The next two functions below provide ways to measure the actors' access to structural holes in a network. Structural holes "provide opportunities to broker connections between people" (Burt 2008).
keyplayer

Compute a KPP-Pos set for a given graph.
