distance

Takes in the geodesic distances, targets, avoiders, a parameter that prioritizes avoiding vs targetting, and the current players and returns the strategic players distance metric

Identifies individuals in a social network who should be the intervention
subjects for a network intervention in which you have a group of targets, a
group of avoiders, and a group that is neither.
