classify_graph function

Analyze an R object to identify the class of graph (if any)

classify_graph(graph)

Arguments

• graph: Any class of accepted graph format (see netdiffuseR-graphs).

Returns

Whe the object fits any of the accepted graph formats, a list of attributes including - type: Character scalar. Whether is a static or a dynamic graph

• class: Character scalar. The class of the original object

• ids: Character vector. Labels of the vertices

• pers: Integer vector. Labels of the time periods

• nper: Integer scalar. Number of time periods

• n: Integer scalar. Number of vertices in the graph

Otherwise returns with error.

Details

This function analyzes an R object and tries to classify it among the accepted classes in netdiffuseR. If the object fails to fall in one of the types of graphs the function returns with an error indicating what (and when possible, where) the problem lies.

The function was designed to be used with as_diffnet.
