Analyze an R object to identify the class of graph (if any)

classify_graph(graph)

Arguments

graph

Any class of accepted graph format (see netdiffuseR-graphs).

Value

Whe the object fits any of the accepted graph formats, a list of attributes including

type

Character scalar. Whether is a static or a dynamic graph

class

Character scalar. The class of the original object

ids

Character vector. Labels of the vertices

pers

Integer vector. Labels of the time periods

nper

Integer scalar. Number of time periods

n

Integer scalar. Number of vertices in the graph

Otherwise returns with error.

Details

This function analyzes an R object and tries to classify it among the accepted classes in netdiffuseR. If the object fails to fall in one of the types of graphs the function returns with an error indicating what (and when possible, where) the problem lies.

The function was designed to be used with as_diffnet.
