multinets: Multilevel Network Analysis

Project Status: Active – The project has reached a stable, usable state and is being actively developed. Licence Build Status


minimal R version CRAN_Status_Badge

multinets is an R package that provides tools to visualize and analyze Multilevel Network Data. It was built as an extension to the igraph package.

Installation

The multinets package is on CRAN. It is developed under control version using Git and is hosted in GitHub. You can download it from CRAN using:

install.packages("multinets")

You can download the development version from GitHub using devtools:

# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("neylsoncrepalde/multinets")

Usage

As a basic example, we will plot a multilevel network. We are going to use linked_sim, a simulated multilevel network dataset.

library(igraph)
#> 
#> Attaching package: 'igraph'
#> The following objects are masked from 'package:stats':
#> 
#>     decompose, spectrum
#> The following object is masked from 'package:base':
#> 
#>     union
library(multinets)
#> multinets was developed by Neylson Crepalde as an extension to 'igraph'

# Load the dataset
data("linked_sim")

# Test if the data is a multilevel network
is_multilevel(linked_sim)
#> [1] TRUE

# Set the layout coordinates
l <- layout_multilevel(linked_sim, layout = layout_with_kk)

# Set different colors and shapes for each level vertices
linked_sim <- set_color_multilevel(linked_sim)
linked_sim <- set_shape_multilevel(linked_sim)

# Plot
plot(linked_sim, layout = l, vertex.size = 5, vertex.label = NA)

These binaries (installable software) and packages are in development.
They may not be fully stable and should be used with caution. We make no claims about them.
