Overview

About

Maintained by Arash A. AminiFirst published 2022-11-091 releasesCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗

Features tools for the network data analysis and community detection. Provides multiple methods for fitting, model selection and goodness-of-fit testing in degree-corrected stochastic blocks models. Most of the computations are fast and scalable for sparse networks, esp. for Poisson versions of the models. Implements the following: Amini, Chen, Bickel and Levina (2013) doi:10.1214/13-AOS1138 Bickel and Sarkar (2015) doi:10.1111/rssb.12117 Lei (2016) doi:10.1214/15-AOS1370 Wang and Bickel (2017) doi:10.1214/16-AOS1457 Zhang and Amini (2020) arXiv:2012.15047 Le and Levina (2022) doi:10.1214/21-EJS1971.
