R: Hints for Temporal Exponential Family Random Graph Models

ergm-hints {tergm} | R Documentation

## Hints for Temporal Exponential Family Random Graph Models

### Description

This page describes the hints and network sample space constraints that are included with the `tergm` package. For more information, and instructions for using hints and constraints, see `ergm-hints` and `ergm`.

### Hints implemented in the `tergm` package

`discord`

  The Dynamic Discordance Hint: Propose toggling discordant dyads with greater frequency (typically about 50 percent). May be used in dynamic fitting and simulation.
