R: Graph simulation

graph.sim {BDgraph} | R Documentation

## Graph simulation

### Description

Simulating undirected graph structures, including `"random"`, `"cluster"`, `"scale-free"`, `"lattice"`, `"hub"`, `"star"`, and `"circle"`.

### Usage

    graph.sim( p = 10, graph = "random", prob = 0.2, size = NULL, class = NULL, vis = FALSE )

### Arguments

`p` | The number of variables (nodes).
`graph` | The undirected graph with options `"random"`, `"cluster"`, `"scale-free"`, `"lattice"`, `"hub"`, `"star"`, and `"circle"`. It also could be an adjacency matrix corresponding to a graph structure (an upper triangular matrix in which g_{ij}=1 if there is a link between notes i and j, otherwise g_{ij}=0).
`prob` | If `graph="random"`, it is the probability that a pair of nodes has a link.
`size` | The number of links in the true graph (graph size).
`class` | If `graph="cluster"`, it is the number of classes.
`vis` | Visualize the true graph structure.

### Value

The adjacency matrix corresponding to the simulated graph structure, as an object with `S3` class `"graph"`.
