tauInitial: List of initial values for \(\tau\)

Description

Same function whatever directed or undirected case

Usage

tauInitial(data, n, Q, d_part, n_perturb, perc_perturb, n_random, directed)

Value

List of matrixes of initial values for \(\tau\)

Arguments

data

Data : only needs the \(N_{ijk}\) field of data

n

Total number of nodes

Q

Total number of groups

d_part

Maximal level for finest partitions of time interval [0,T], used for kmeans initializations.

  • Algorithm takes partition up to depth \(2^d\) with \(d=1,...,d_{part}\)

  • Explore partitions \([0,T], [0,T/2], [T/2,T], ... [0,T/2^d], ...[(2^d-1)T/2^d,T]\)

  • Total number of partitions \(npart= 2^{(d_part +1)} - 1\)

n_perturb

Number of different perturbations on k-means result

perc_perturb

Percentage of labels that are to be perturbed (= randomly switched)

n_random

Number of completely random initial points. If not zero there will be n_random taus uniformly sampled in the initialization.

directed

Boolean for directed (TRUE) or undirected (FALSE) case

Details

The (maximal) total number of initializations is \(d_{part}*(1+n_{perturb}) + n_{random}\)
