b1star-ergmTerm {ergm} | R Documentation |
-stars for the first mode in a bipartite network
Description
This term adds one network statistic to the model for
each element in k
. The th such statistic counts the number of
distinct
k[i]
-stars whose center node is in the first mode of the
network. The first mode of a bipartite network object is sometimes known as
the "actor" mode. A -star is defined to be a center node
and
a set of
different nodes
such that the
ties
exist for
.
This term can only be used for
undirected bipartite networks.
Usage
# binary: b1star(k, attr=NULL, levels=NULL)
Arguments
k |
a vector of distinct integers |
attr , levels |
a vertex attribute specification; if |
Note
b1star(1)
is equal to b2star(1)
and to edges
.
