nwdynam
nwdynam fits dynamic network actor models to a timestamped sequence of events, after the R package goldfish: a rate sub-model for who acts next and a choice sub-model for whom the actor chooses (plus a coordination variant for undirected events).
nwdynam is not part of the core nwcommands. It is a package of its own, released under the
GNU General Public License, version 3, and it needs the core installed first.
| License | GPL-3 |
| Repository | github.com/thomas-u-grund/nwdynam |
| Install | nwinstall, modelpkg(nwdynam) (after the core; nwinstall, everything installs the core and the four model packages) |
| Version | nwdynam version; release history on GitHub |
Without nwinstall |
net install nwdynam, from(https://raw.githubusercontent.com/thomas-u-grund/nwdynam/main/) replace |
nwdynam version shows the installed release and nwversion lists all model packages. Updating the
core never overwrites the package; to update the package, repeat the nwinstall line. Inside Stata, help nwdynam gives the complete syntax, options and examples.
What it offers:
- structural effects such as inertia, reciprocity and degrees, with optional recency windows
- node and dyadic covariates
- maximum likelihood estimation
