ModifyingFunctions for modifying networks into other formats. This includes functions for reformatting networks into networks of the same dimensions but a different type, e.g. from directed to undirected. It also includes functions for transforming networks into networks with other dimensions, such as from a two-mode network into a one-mode network. There are also functions for splitting networks, e.g. into a list of ego networks, and rejoining them from such lists. |
