List critical dyads

Source: R/gaps_critical_edges.R

Critical dyads are edges on a specified level which break motifs by being removed from the network.

critical_dyads(net, motif, lvl_attr = c("sesType"), level = -1)

Arguments

net

network object
motif

motif identifier
lvl_attr

character vector specifying the attribute name where level information is stored in net
level

level of the dyads which shall be considered, or -1 if the level shall be determined automatically.

Value

data frame with three columns, listing edges and their contribution to motifs described by the motif identifier in descending order

Details

The level parameter determines on which level of the network critical dyads are analysed. Per default, when level = -1, the first level in the motif which provides exactly two nodes is selected. Use this parameter to specify a level manually. The procedure for determining the level is the same as for the Actor's Choice Model, cf. vignette.

Note that this only works for undirected graphs. Regardless of whether the input graph is directed it is treated as undirected graph.

Examples

# \dontrun{
head(critical_dyads(ml_net, motif = "1,2[I.C]"))

#>   vertex0 vertex1 contribution
#> 1 actor16 actor24            4
#> 2  actor6  actor7            3
#> 3  actor6 actor54            3
#> 4  actor7 actor54            3
#> 5 actor10 actor18            3
#> 6 actor10 actor24            3
