Identifies the signs and pairwise relationsips of two matrices and compares the difference between them.
Arguments
- x
x is a square matrix of real numbers. While this function is more general, the initial intention was for this to be the direct utility matrix.
- y
y is a square matrix of real numbers. While this function is more general, the initial intention was for this to be the integral utility matrix or the mixed trophic impacts matrix.
Value
- Direct.Signs
A sign matrix for matrix x.
- Integral.Signs
A sign matrix for matrix x.
- Direct.Relations
A matrix of the pairwise sign relationships for matrix x.
- Integral.Relations
A matrix of the pairwise signed relationships in matrix y.
- Relations.Table
A table that summarizes the relations.
- Changed.Table
A summary table of only the pariwise relationships that changed between x and y.
- ns
A vector of network statisitcs which currently includes one whole-network statistic - a ratio of the relationships changed between x and y.
