graph-coerce function

Graph coercion

Methods for changing graph representations

coerceGraph(object, class)

graph_as(object, outtype, intype = NULL)

Arguments

• object: A graph object
• class: The desired output class
• outtype: The desired output outtype
• intype: The desired output outtype (only relevant if object is a list)

Details

coerceGraph is used in the book "Graphical models with R". A more generic approach is as().

Examples

g1 <- ug(~a:b+b:c)
as(g1, "igraph")
as(g1, "matrix")
as(g1, "Matrix")
as(g1, "dgCMatrix")

## graph_as(g1, "ugList") ## Fails
## getCliques(g1)         ## Works

l1 <- list(c("a" ,"b"), c("b", "c"))
