Compare Two Networks — compare_networks • Saqrmisc

Performs Network Comparison Test (NCT) to compare network structure and global strength between two groups.

Usage

compare_networks(results, groups, it = 1000, test = "both", verbose = TRUE)

Arguments

results: Object from estimate_grouped_networks
groups: Character vector of length 2 specifying which groups to compare
it: Number of permutations for NCT. Defaults to 1000.
test: Which tests to perform: "network" (structure), "global" (strength), "both" (default).
verbose: Print progress. Defaults to TRUE.

Value

A list containing NCT results with p-values for network structure and global strength differences.

Examples

if (FALSE) { # \dontrun{
# First estimate grouped networks
grouped_results <- estimate_grouped_networks(df, Vars, GroupVar = "group")

# Then compare two groups
comparison <- compare_networks(
  grouped_results,
  groups = c("GroupA", "GroupB"),
  it = 500
)
} # }
