goldfish 1.5.0

New features

  • New DyNAM-i model available to model face-to-face interaction data, collected through video or RFID badges.

  • Functions to transform interaction data into DyNAM-compatible objects

    
defineGroups_interaction(interactions_data, actors, seed.randomization)

  • Estimation functions for the joining and leaving rates of a DyNAM-i model

    
estimate(
  dependent.events_interactions ~  1 + intercept(network_interactions, joining = 1) +
                                ego(actors$age,joining = 1, subType = "centered") +
