statnet Tutorial

The tutorial from the Introduction to ergm workshop is the best way to get started with statnet if you have never used any of the packages before.

Workshop Materials

The team teaches workshops on statnet in various settings. The main venue is the annual INSNA Sunbelt Social Network Conference , where we now teach a set of 6 workshops that range from an introduction to social network analysis with R and Statnet, to programming your own ergm model terms. The materials from the most recent Sunbelt workshops can be found below:

  • An Introduction to Network Analysis with R and statnet
  • Moving Beyond Descriptives: Basic Network Statistics with statnet
  • Exponential-family Random Graph (ERG or p*) Modeling with statnet
  • STERGM - Separable Temporal ERGMs
  • Modeling Relational Event Dynamics with statnet
  • Extending ERGM Functionality within statnet: Building Custom User Terms

    • Expository published papers on statnet

    The team periodically publishes papers on new functionality in the statnet program in the Journal of Statistical Software.

  • In 2008, JSS published a Special Volume on statnet (v42) that includes a short paper on the statistical theory behind ERGMs, and descriptions of the packages available at the time.

    ergmuserterms package in R for creating user-specified terms for the statnet packages -- this package is not fully documented yet, but there are extensive comments written into the code in two places below and interested users can look to the R/InitErgmTerm.R and src/changestats.c files in the ergm package for further examples to copy/modify.
