[R] Distance measure for large sparse matrix

2008-08-01 Thread Messing, Solomon O.
Hello, I am trying to compute a distance measure for the rows (var1) in a sparse matrix: require(Matrix) dfx = xtabs(~ var1 + var2, data = df, sparse = T, drop.unused.levels = T ) dm = dist(dfx) on my data frame. Note that I am using the xtabs function from the Matrix package, not

Hi, Does anyone know of a package in R that has a function to convert network data (e.g. an adjacency matrix or ) from 2-mode to 1-mode? I am conducting social network analysis. I know that Pajek has this function under Net --> Transform --> 2-mode to 1-mode --> Rows. I have searched the doc
