estimnetdirected - v3.8.2

More bipartite change statistics (BipartiteTwoPathDiff, BipartiteTwoPathSum), more efficient threePaths computation, allow TwoPaths and AltTwoPaths for bipartite networks, more scripts for bipartite network examples, now handles Pajek bipartite .net files input where i j row has i > j, do cycle length distributions and bipartite clustering coefficients in GoF, more options on GoF script, parallelize some slow computations (e.g. geodesic distribution) in GoF script.

estimnetdirected - v3.8.1

This release adds BinaryPairInteraction parameter for interaction of two binary attributes, in particular useful for two-mode networks, e.g.

attrInteractionParams = {BinaryPairInteraction(genderMale, sectorOilandGas)}

Also includes the IsolatedEdges structural parameters. Also adds options and plots on goodness-of-fit plot scripts for bipartite (two-mode) networks including plotting 4-cycle distributions.

Now allows quoted strings in config files (useful for filenames with spaces or other 'special' characters in them for example, as often found on MS-DOS style filenames on Windows PCs), and scripts convert characters like '-' and '' in parameter names to '.' (rather than '') in output for R processing as more 'R style' and also to reserve use of underscore to delimit attribute names in output files.

estimnetdirected - v3.8

This release allows bipartite (two-mode) networks (undirected). Also, Allow Arc/Edge in config file for IFD sampler, but just remove from parameter list internally (instead of error), and fix for memory leak.

estimnetdirected - v3.7.3

estimnetdirected - v3.7.2

Now also handles undirected networks with "isDirected = False" in config file (then arclistFile is Pajek format undirected network with *edges rather than *arcs)- and use Edge rather than Arc in structParams (and other parameters appropriate for undirected rather than directed networks). See examples in examples/undirected/ directory.

estimnetdirected - This release is more scalable in memory usage

This release now allows (by default) change statistic computation without using lookup tables (either hash tables or arrays), which is much more scalable in terms of memory usage. This can also be more efficient in some cases even when large memory usage was not required.
