evolution_games {tidygraph}R Documentation

Graph games based on evolution

Description

This games create graphs through different types of evolutionary mechanisms (not necessarily in a biological sense). The nature of their algorithm is described in detail at the linked igraph documentation.

Usage

play_citation_age(n, growth = 1, bins = n/7100, p_pref = (1:(bins +
  1))^-3, directed = TRUE)

play_forestfire(n, p_forward, p_backward = p_forward, growth = 1,
  directed = TRUE)

play_growing(n, growth = 1, directed = TRUE, citation = FALSE)

play_barabasi_albert(n, power, growth = 1, growth_dist = NULL,
  use_out = FALSE, appeal_zero = 1, directed = TRUE,
  method = "psumtree")

play_barabasi_albert_aging(n, power, power_age, growth = 1,
  growth_dist = NULL, bins = 300, use_out = FALSE, appeal_zero = 1,
  appeal_zero_age = 0, directed = TRUE, coefficient = 1,
  coefficient_age = 1, window = NULL)

Arguments

n

The number of nodes in the graph.

growth

The number of edges added at each iteration

bins

The number of aging bins

p_pref

The probability that an edge will be made to an age bin.

directed

Should the resulting graph be directed

p_forward, p_backward

Forward and backward burning probability

citation

Should a citation graph be created

power

The power of the preferential attachment

growth_dist

The distribution of the number of added edges at each iteration

use_out

Should outbound edges be used for calculating citation probability

appeal_zero

The appeal value for unconnected nodes

method

The algorithm to use for graph creation. Either 'psumtree', 'psumtree-multiple', or 'bag'

power_age

The aging exponent

appeal_zero_age

The appeal value of nodes without age

coefficient

The coefficient of the degree dependent part of attrictiveness

coefficient_age

The coefficient of the age dependent part of attrictiveness

window

The aging window to take into account when calculating the preferential attraction

Value

A tbl_graph object
