An integrated set of tools to analyze and simulate networks based on exponential-family random graph models (ERGMs). 'ergm' is a part of the Statnet suite of packages for network analysis. See Hunter, Handcock, Butts, Goodreau, and Morris (2008) doi:10.18637/jss.v024.i03 and Krivitsky, Hunter, Morris, and Klumb (2023) doi:10.18637/jss.v105.i06.
To facilitate open development of the package while giving the core developers an opportunity to publish on their developments before opening them up for general use, this project comprises two repositories:
- A public repository
statnet/ergm - A private repository
statnet/ergm-private
The intention is that all developments in statnet/ergm-private will eventually make their way into statnet/ergm and onto CRAN.
Developers and Contributing Users to the Statnet Project should read https://statnet.org/private/ for information about the relationship between the public and the private repository and the workflows involved.
R-Universe builds a set of binaries after every commit to the main branch of the repository. We strongly encourage testing against them before filing a bug report, as they may contain fixes that have not yet been sent to CRAN. To obtain the binaries from r-universe, navigate to the package page at https://statnet.r-universe.dev/ergm .
You may also want to install the corresponding latest binaries for packages on which ergm depends, in particular statnet.common and ergm.count.
