nett is an R package for the analysis of network data
with a focus on community detection and implements
multiple methods for hypothesis testing. It includes model selection and
goodness-of-fit tests of SBM/DCSBM to network data, which are useful in
network statistical analysis. Some of the implemented functionality are
follows: - Spectral clustering with regularization - Conditional
pseudo-likelihood for community detection (Amini, Chen,
Bickel and Levina). - Spectral goodness-of-test for SBM and DCSBM
(inspired by Bickel
and Sarkar, and Lei’s work).
- Likelihood ratio tests and BIC selection for SBM and DCSBM (inspired
by Wang and
Bickel’s work among others.) - Likelihood computations for SBM and
DCSBM. - Network Adjusted Chi-square test for SBM and DCSBM (Zhang and Amini). -
Bethe-Hessian Selection for DCSBM (inspired by Le
and Levina’s work). - …
Most of the computations haven been adapted to Poisson models to make them fast and scalable.
