Stabilizing Nodes

Description

Computes the within-community centrality for each node in the network

Usage

stable(
  A,
  comm = c("walktrap", "louvain"),
  cent = c("betweenness", "rspbc", "closeness", "strength", "degree", "hybrid"),
  absolute = TRUE,
  diagonal = 0,
  ...
)

Arguments

A

An adjacency matrix of network data

comm

Can be a vector of community assignments or community detection algorithms ("walktrap" or "louvain") can be used to determine the number of factors. Defaults to "walktrap". Set to "louvain" for louvain community detection

cent

Centrality measure to be used. Defaults to "strength".

absolute

Should network use absolute weights? Defaults to TRUE. Set to FALSE for signed weights

diagonal

Sets the diagonal values of the A input. Defaults to 0

...

Additional arguments for cluster_walktrap and louvain community detection algorithms

Value

A matrix containing the within-community centrality value for each node
