frustration_exact function

Exact frustration index of a signed network

Computes the exact frustration index of a signed network using linear programming

frustration_exact(g, ...)

Arguments

• g: signed network
• ...: additional parameters for the ompr solver

Returns

list containing the frustration index and the bipartition of nodes

Details

The frustration index indicates the minimum number of edges whose removal results in a balance network. The function needs the following packages to be installed: ompr, ompr.roi,ROI, and ROI.plugin.glpk. The function Implements the AND model in Aref et al., 2020
