Inter-layer mutual information

Inter-layer mutual information

mi_interlayer(g0, g1, probTable = FALSE)

Arguments

g0

An igraph object representing a layer in a multiplex graph

g1

An igraph object representing a layer in a multiplex graph

probTable

Option to return the table with marginal and joint degree distribution probabilities (default = TRUE)

Value

The inter-layer mutual information between g1 and g2. If probTable=TRUE, a list object with two fields, the inter-layer mutual information and the table with marginal and joint degree distributions

Note

If the networks are weighted the strength distribution will be used instead of the the degree distribution.
