Creates a Network with the top results of the Random Walk with restart on a Multiplex Network

create.multiplexNetwork.topResults is a function to create a network from the top results of the Random Walk with Restart on Multiplex networks algorithm (a RWRM_Results object).

create.multiplexNetwork.topResults(RWRM_Result_Object,
    MultiplexObject,k=25)

Arguments

RWRM_Result_Object

A RWRM_Results object generated by the function Random.Walk.Restart.Multiplex representing the results of the Random Ralk with restart on the multiplex network described in the following argument.

MultiplexObject

A Multiplex object generated by the function create.multiplex representing a multiplex network.

k

A numeric value between 1 and 200. It is the number of top ranked nodes to be included in the resulting multiplex network.

Value

An igraph object containing the top k ranked multiplex nodes in the Random Walk with Restart on a Multiplex network algorithm. We include all the possible types of interactions between pairs of nodes according to the different layers of the multiplex network.
