Multiplex Network Regression: How do relations drive interactions?
[article]
2020
arXiv
pre-print
We introduce a statistical regression model to investigate the impact of dyadic relations on complex networks generated from observed repeated interactions. ...
To demonstrate the power of our approach, we investigate an example based on empirical data. ...
We can build the fourth predictor using the social networks obtained from self-reported friendship relations. Because this data is self-reported, it generates a directed social network. ...
