vis_clustered_graphs function

Visualize clustered graphs

vis_clustered_graphs visualizes clustered_graphs using a list of clustered graphs created with clustered_graphs.

vis_clustered_graphs(
  graphs,
  node.size.multiplier = 1,
  node.min.size = 0,
  node.max.size = 200,
  normalise.node.sizes = TRUE,
  edge.width.multiplier = 1,
  center = 1,
  label.size = 0.8,
  labels = FALSE,
  legend.node.size = 45,
  pdf.name = NULL,
  ...
)

Arguments

• graphs: List of graph objects, representing the clustered graphs.
• node.size.multiplier: Numeric used to multiply the node diameter of visualized nodes.
• node.min.size: Numeric indicating minimum size of plotted nodes
• node.max.size: Numeric indicating maximum size of plotted nodes
• normalise.node.sizes: Logical. If TRUE (default) node sizes are plotted using per network proportions rather than counts.
• edge.width.multiplier: Numeric used to multiply the edge width.
• center: Numeric indicating the vertex to be plotted in center.
• label.size: Numeric.
• labels: Boolean. Plots with turned off labels will be accompanied by a 'legend' plot giving the labels of the vertices.
• legend.node.size: Numeric used as node diameter of legend graph.
• pdf.name: Character giving the name/path of the pdf file to create.
• ...: Arguments to pass to plot.igraph.

Returns

vis_clustered_graphs plots a list of igraph objects created by the clustered_graphs

function.

clustered_graphs returns a list of graph objects representing the clustered ego-centered network data;

Examples

data("egor32")

# Simplify networks to clustered graphs, stored as igraph objects
graphs <- clustered_graphs(egor32, "country") 

# Visualise
par(mfrow = c(2,3))
vis_clustered_graphs(
  graphs[1:5]
)
par(mfrow = c(1,1))
