R: Graph motifs

count_motifs {igraph} | R Documentation

## Graph motifs

### Description

Graph motifs are small connected subgraphs with a well-defined structure. These functions search a graph for various motifs.

### Usage

    count_motifs(graph, size = 3, cut.prob = rep(0, size))

### Arguments

`graph` | Graph object, the input graph.
`size` | The size of the motif, currently 3 and 4 are supported only.
`cut.prob` | Numeric vector giving the probabilities that the search graph is cut at a certain level. Its length should be the same as the size of the motif (the `size` argument). By default no cuts are made.

### Details

`count_motifs` calculates the total number of motifs of a given size in graph.

### Value

`count_motifs` returns a numeric scalar.

### See Also

`isomorphism_class`

Other graph motifs: `motifs()`, `sample_motifs()`

### Examples

    g <- barabasi.game(100)
    motifs(g, 3)
    count_motifs(g, 3)
    sample_motifs(g, 3)
