The rgexf R package has been around a couple of years now, but without much going on on CRAN (my bad!). In this post I’ll show how to use the new version (on development and soon the be shipped to CRAN) together with the netdiffuseR R package to visualize a random diffusion process.
First, we load all the packages that we will be using
# Loading the relevant packages library(igraph, quietly = TRUE) library(rgexf, quietly = TRUE) library(netdiffuseR, quietly = TRUE)
Next, we simulate a random diffusion network, in this case, a small-world network with 200 nodes spanning 20 time periods.
# A random diffusion network set.seed(122) net <- rdiffnet(n = 200, t=20, seed.graph = "small-world")
Now, we get the parameters ready, in this case, position using the function layout_nicely from the igraph package, and colors using the Time of Adoption (toa)
# Setting viz attributes pos <- cbind(layout_nicely(diffnet_to_igraph(net)[[1]]), 0) # Coloring according to time of adoption. White ones are not # adopters. col <- diffnet.toa(net) col <- col/20 col <- colorRamp(blues9, alpha = TRUE)(col) col[is.na(col[,1]),1:3] <- 255 col[,4] <- .5
Finally, we create the GEXF object and call the plot function. In this case we are using gexf-js (sigma-js will return in the future). Also, notice that we are only copying the files; the default behavior is to copy the files by setting copy.only = TRUE and start the server using the servr.
# Creating the gexf object
gf <- igraph.to.gexf(
diffnet_to_igraph(net)[[1]],
nodesVizAtt = list(
color = col,
position = pos
)
)
# Plotting using gexf-js
plot(
gf,
edgeWidthFactor = .1,
copy.only = TRUE,
dir = "../../static/post/reboot-of-rgexf/viz"
)
