Correlation of Community Centrality with Classic Centrality
corLinkcommCentrality.RdThis function calculates the correlation between the community centrality and classic centrality measures for a set of nodes in a network, and plots a scatterplot of the relationship together with a fitted straight line.
corLinkcommCentrality(x, centrality = "degree", type = "commweight", method = "spearman", plot = TRUE, pch = 20, ...)
Arguments
| x | An object of class |
|---|---|
| centrality | A character string naming the classic centrality measure. Can be one of |
| type | A character string naming the type of community centrality. Can be |
| method | A character string naming the correlation method. Can be one of |
| plot | Logical, whether to plot a scatterplot of the relationship, defaults to TRUE. |
| pch | An integer specifying the plot symbol (see |
| ... | Additional arguments to be passed to |
Details
The correlation between community centrality and classic centrality measures, such as degree or betweenness, may reveal discrepancies, thereby indicating that community centrality scores provide a unique reflection of node importance.
Value
A correlation coefficient.
