Plot network of nodes connected by pairwise block propensity

Takes the results of mcmc_sweep() with track_pairs = TRUE and plots the data as a network where two nodes have an edge between them if their pairwise propensity to be in the same block is above some threshold.

visualize_propensity_network(
  sbm,
  proportion_threshold = 0.2,
  isolate_type = NULL
)

Arguments

sbm	Object of class sbm_network.
proportion_threshold	Threshold of pairwise propensity to consider two nodes linked. Choose carefully!
isolate_type	Node type to be isolated for visualization. If left empty all types are included.

Value

An interactive network plot with force layout.
