v1.7.0

[jhollway]

Package

• Raised the minimum versions of the stocnet dependencies: manynet 2.3.1, autograph 1.2.2, and netrics 1.0.1
• Updated CONTRIBUTING

Models

• Fixed play_diffusions() for stocnet input via initial coercion (re play_diffusion() stops on stocnet input, including manynet's own datasets manynet#172)

Data

• Converted every mpn_* dataset to the stocnet class, in line with {manynet}
• Removed the weight tie attribute from the datasets that are not weighted
• Merged mpn_cow
  • This combines interstate trade and IGO membership into one multilevel network
    of 116 "states" and 40 "IGOs", with trade and membership tie layers
  • mpn_cow_trade and mpn_cow_igo are retained, because {manynet} currently
    reads a network with two named modes as undirected, which symmetrises the
    trade layer of mpn_cow, and because to_layer() does not recover that layer
    either (to_layer() corrupts arc endpoints when it drops nodes manynet#170, is_directed() returns FALSE for a two-mode network with a directed layer manynet#171)
  • Fixed mpn_cow_trade missing-data coding from -9 (759 cells) to NA
  • Added a scope node attribute to the IGOs in mpn_cow and mpn_cow_igo,
    recording whether an organisation is "global" or "regional"
• Merged mpn_senate
  • This combines the 112th Congress data into one multilevel network
    of 93 senators, 78 PACs, and 25 bills
  • mpn_senate_dem and mpn_senate_rep are not party networks but
    record two communities of one network and their intersection;
    the community node attribute holds "A", "B", or "both"
  • Cells that neither community covers were never observed, and are recorded as
    missing rather than as absent ties
  • Where the two communities disagree, in 9 of their 640 shared cells,
    community A governs, since it agrees with the overlap file in all 640
  • mpn_senate_dem, mpn_senate_rep, and mpn_senate_over are deprecated and
    will be removed in 1.8.0
• Merged mpn_evs_ita, mpn_evs_deu, and mpn_evs_gbr
  • These combine each country's European Values Study data for 1990 and 2008 into one two-mode network,
    with the year recorded in the time tie attribute
  • These are repeated cross-sections, not a panel, so use over_time() not over_waves()
  • The six year-by-country datasets are deprecated and will be removed in 1.8.0
• Converted mpn_elite_mex
• Converted mpn_elite_usa_advice
  • It now names its two modes, "directors" and "think tanks"
• Converted mpn_elite_usa_money
  • It now names its three modes, "elites", "organisations", and "candidates"
• Converted mpn_bristol
  • It now names its three modes, "individuals", "organisations", and "events"
• Converted mpn_ryanair

Pull request overview

This PR prepares the migraph v1.7.0 release by bumping minimum dependency versions, improving diffusion simulation compatibility with stocnet inputs, and updating/expanding dataset documentation (including new combined multilevel/longitudinal mpn_* datasets and deprecation notices).

Changes:

• Bumped package version to 1.7.0 and raised minimum {manynet}, {autograph}, and {netrics} versions.
• Fixed play_diffusions() for stocnet inputs by coercing to igraph prior to calling {manynet} diffusion logic.
• Updated dataset docs/NEWS/CONTRIBUTING and improved the release workflow to populate GitHub Release notes from NEWS.md.

R/model_diffusion.R:42

• furrr::furrr_options(seed = T) uses the shorthand constant T, which can be overridden by user code (it’s just a variable) and is less robust than TRUE. Use seed = TRUE to avoid accidental non-reproducibility.

  if (inherits(.data, "stocnet")) .data <- manynet::as_igraph(.data)
  
  out <- furrr::future_map_dfr(1:times, function(j){
    data.frame(sim = j,
               manynet::as_diffusion(manynet::play_diffusion(.data, ...)))
  }, .progress = verbose, .options = furrr::furrr_options(seed = T))
