triversity is an R package for the computation of diversity measures
on tripartite graphs. First, it implements a parametrized family of such diversity
measures which apply on probability distributions. Sometimes called "True Diversity",
this family contains famous measures such as the richness, the Shannon entropy, the
Herfindahl-Hirschman index, and the Berger-Parker index. Second, the package allows
to apply these measures on probability distributions resulting from random walks between
the levels of tripartite graphs. By defining an initial distribution at a given level of
the graph and a path to follow between the three levels, the probability of the walker's
position within the final level is then computed, thus providing a particular instance of
diversity to measure.
This package has been developed by researchers of the Complex Networks team, located within the Computer Science Laboratory of Paris 6 (LIP6), for the AlgoDiv project founded by the French National Agency of Research (ANR) under grant ANR-15-CE38-0001.
