Analysis of Diffusion and Contagion Processes on Networks
About
Empirical statistical analysis, visualization, and simulation of diffusion and contagion processes on networks. The package implements algorithms for calculating network diffusion statistics such as transmission rate, hazard rates, exposure models, network threshold levels, infectiousness (contagion), and susceptibility. The package is inspired by work published in Valente et al. (2015), Valente (1995), Myers (2000), Iyengar and others (2011), Burt (1987), among others.
