initialTau {noisySBM}

compute intial values for tau

Description

returns a list of length nbOfTau of initial points for tau using spectral clustering with absolute values, kmeans and random perturbations of these points

Usage

initialTau(Q, dataMatrix, nbOfTau, percentageOfPerturbation, directed)

Arguments

Q

number of latent blocks in the noisy stochastic block model

dataMatrix

observed dense adjacency matrix

nbOfTau

number of initializations for the latent block memberships

percentageOfPerturbation

percentage of node labels that are perturbed to obtain further initial points

directed

booelan to indicate whether the model is directed or undirected

Value

a list of length nbOfTau of initial points for tau
