SCG Extra Functions

Description

Some useful functions to perform general actions in Spectral Coarse Graining (SCG).

Usage

scgNormEps(V, groups, mtype = c("symmetric", "laplacian",
          "stochastic"), p = NULL, norm = c("row", "col"))

Arguments

V

A numeric matrix of (eigen)vectors assumed normalized. The vectors are to be stored column-wise in V).

groups

A vector of nrow(V) integers labeling each group vertex in the partition.

mtype

The type of semi-projector used for the SCG. For now “symmetric”, “laplacian” and “stochastic” are available.

p

A probability vector of length nrow(V). p is the stationary probability distribution of a Markov chain when mtype = “stochastic”. This parameter is ignored otherwise.

norm

Either “row” or “col”. If set to “row” the rows of the Laplacian matrix sum to zero and the rows of the stochastic matrix sum to one; otherwise it is the columns.

Details

scgNormEps computes |v[i]-Pv[i]|, where v[i] is the ith eigenvector in V and P is the projector corresponding to the mtype argument.

Value

normEps returns with a numeric vector whose ith component is |v[i]-Pv[i]| (see Details).
