Ac3net.getDirectedOrDualLinks {Ac3net}

Find the unique directed or dual links in the network.

Description

Ac3net.getDirectedOrDualLinks takes a network list matrix and returns a unique network; either directionals or the duals.

Usage

Ac3net.getDirectedOrDualLinks(net1, dual_=FALSE)

Arguments

net1

A matrix that represents the links between two variables at each row. Namely, the element at row i and column 1 and the element at row i and column 2 are assumed to be paired or linked. There is no connection assumed among rows.

dual_

It is FALSE by default, which means there is directionality assumed from column 1 to column 2 at each matrices. A–B and B–A is cases filtered out. If TRUE, then only the dual pairs selected.

Details

Ac3net.getDirectedOrDualLinks takes a network list matrix and returns a unique network; either directionals or the duals. If directed=TRUE then it is the unique pairs from column 1 to column 2. If directed=FALSE then it is the unique dual pairs (selects if and only if A–B and B–A exist). directional or undirectional common pairs between the two regarding the first two columns of the networks.

Value

Ac3net.getDirectedOrDualLinks returns a unique network matrix.
