transitiveClosure: Returns the transitive closure of a graph.

Description

Returns the transitive closure of an adjacency matrix.

Usage

transitiveClosure(amat)

Arguments

amat

The adjacency matrix of a graph.

Value

• closure
  The transititve closure of the adjacency matrix representing a graph.

Details

A function that computes the transitive closure of a graph. The transitive closure C(G) of a graph is a graph which contains an edge between nodes u and v whenever there is a directed path from u to v (Skiena 1990, p. 203). from: http://mathworld.wolfram.com/TransitiveClosure.html

# example adjacency matrix
# simulate a dataset with continuous data
dataset <- matrix( runif(1000 * 10, 1, 100), nrow = 1000 ) 
test <- pc.con( dataset, method = "pearson", alpha = 0.05 )$G
