force-directed graph layout based on stress majorization with variable constrained in 3D
Usage
layout_with_constrained_stress3D(
g,
coord,
fixdim = "x",
weights = NA,
iter = 500,
tol = 1e-04,
mds = TRUE,
bbox = 30
)Arguments
- g
igraph object
- coord
numeric vector. fixed coordinates for dimension specified in
fixdim.- fixdim
string. which dimension should be fixed. Either "x", "y" or "z".
- weights
possibly a numeric vector with edge weights. If this is NULL and the graph has a weight edge attribute, then the attribute is used. If this is NA then no weights are used (even if the graph has a weight attribute). By default, weights are ignored. See details for more.
- iter
number of iterations during stress optimization
- tol
stopping criterion for stress optimization
- mds
should an MDS layout be used as initial layout (default: TRUE)
- bbox
constrain dimension of output. Only relevant to determine the placement of disconnected graphs
Details
Be careful when using weights. In most cases, the inverse of the edge weights should be used to ensure that the endpoints of an edges with higher weights are closer together (weights=1/E(g)$weight).
This function does not come with direct support for igraph or ggraph.
