predict.ergmm

R Documentation

Predicted Dyad Values for an ERGMM.

Returns a matrix of expected dyad values based on an ERGMM fit.

## S3 method for class 'ergmm'
predict(object,...,type = "post")

`object`	An obejct of class `ergmm`.
`type`	One of "mkl", "start", "mle", "pmean", "mkl", "pmode", "post", an index of the iteration to use, or a list, for the configuration of parameters based on which the prediction is made. An exception is "post", which computes the expected dyad values integrated over the posterior.
`...`	Additional arguments. Currently unused.

A sociomatrix of predicted values. Note that predictions are made for unobserved values (whether structural zeros or unobserved dyads).
