as.rlebdm.ergm_conlist

Extract dyad-level ERGM constraint information into an rlebdm object

Description

A function to combine the free_dyads attributes of the constraints appropriately to generate an rlebdm of dyads toggleable and/or missing and/or informative under that combination of constraints.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'ergm_conlist'
as.rlebdm(
  x,
  constraints.obs = NULL,
  which = c("free", "missing", "informative"),
  ...
)

Arguments

`x`	an `ergm_conlist` object: a list of initialised constraints. `NULL` is treated as a placeholder for no constraint (i.e., a constant matrix of `TRUE`).
`constraints.obs`	observation process constraints; defaults to `NULL` for all dyads observed (i.e., a constant matrix of `FALSE`).
`which`	which aspect of the constraint to extract: `free` for dyads that may be toggled under the constraints `x`; ignores `constraints.obs`; `missing` for dyads that are free but considered unobserved under the constraints; and `informative` for dyads that are both free and observed.
`...`	additional arguments, currently unused.

Note

For which=="free" or "informative", NULL return value is a placeholder for a matrix of TRUE, whereas for which=="missing" it is a placeholder for a matrix of FALSE.

Each element in the constraint list has a sign, which determins whether the constraint further restricts (for +) or potentially relaxes restriction (for -).
