Estimation of Latent Order Logistic (LOLOG) Models for Networks.
LOLOGs are a flexible and fully general class of statistical graph models.
This package provides functions for performing MOM, GMM and variational
inference. Visual diagnostics and goodness of fit metrics are provided.
See Fellows (2018)
LOLOG is a general framework for generative statistical modeling of graph datasets motivated by the principle of network growth. This class of models is fully general and terms modeling different important network features can be mixed and matched to provide a rich generative description of complex networks.
lolog package, see the introductory vignette.To install the latest release from CRAN run:
install.packages("lolog")
To install the latest development version from the github repo run:
# If devtools is not installed:
# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("statnet/lolog")
If this is your first R source package that you have installed, you’ll also need a set of development tools. On Windows, download and install Rtools, and devtools takes care of the rest. On a Mac, install the Xcode command line tools. On Linux, install the R development package, usually called r-devel or r-base-dev. For details see Package Development Prerequisites.
