This term adds one network statistic to the model equal to the geometrically
weighted dyadwise shared partner distribution for dyads in the first bipartition with decay parameter
decay
parameter, which should be non-negative. This term can only be used with bipartite networks.
# binary: gwb1dsp(decay=0, fixed=FALSE, cutoff=30)
nonnegative decay parameter for the shared partner counts; required if fixed=TRUE
and ignored with a warning otherwise.
optional argument indicating
whether the decay
parameter is fixed at the given value, or is to be fit as a curved
exponential-family model (see Hunter and Handcock, 2006). The
default is FALSE
, which means the scale parameter is not
fixed and thus the model is a curved exponential family.
This optional argument sets the number of underlying b1dsp terms
to use in computing the statistics when fixed=FALSE
, in order to reduce
the computational burden. Its default value can also be controlled by the
gw.cutoff
term option control parameter. (See ?control.ergm
.)
