Equivalence vs approximation
This project distinguishes between equivalent implementations, validated approximations, and exploratory approximations.
Current module status
| Module | Status |
|---|---|
| Link prediction | Python implementation with manual tests; R validation pending |
| QAPLogit | Python implementation with unit tests; R sna::netlogit validation pending |
| ERGM | Dyadic-logistic approximation; not full MCMC-MLE |
| STERGM | Separable dyadic-logistic approximation; not full MCMC-MLE |
The initial ERGM and STERGM modules should not be presented as full equivalents to R ergm, tergm, or stergm.
