List of accepted graph formats
No return value (this manual entry only provides information).
The netdiffuseR package can handle different types of graph objects. Two general classes are defined across the package's functions: static graphs, and dynamic graphs.
In the case of static graphs, these are represented as adjacency
matrices of size \(n\times n\) and can be either matrix
(dense matrices) or dgCMatrix
(sparse matrix from the Matrix package). While
most of the package functions are defined for both classes, the default output
graph is sparse, i.e. dgCMatrix.
With respect to dynamic graphs, these are represented by either
a diffnet object, an array of size
\(n\times n \times T\), or a list of size \(T\)
with sparse matrices (class dgCMatrix) of size \(n\times n\).
Just like the static graph case, while most of the functions accept both
graph types, the default output is dgCMatrix.
In the case of diffnet-class objects, the following arguments can be omitted
when calling fuictions suitable for graph objects:
toa: Time of Adoption vector
adopt: Adoption Matrix
cumadopt: Cumulative Adoption Matrix
undirected: Whether the graph is directed or not
