Edge Weight Distribution Families

Description

Family-link combinations supported by ergmm.

Details

Each supported family has a family of R functions, of the form pY.-, lpY.-, EY.-, dlpY.deta.-, lpYc.-, rsm.-, followed by the family's R name, for the respective family's R name, representing the family's likelihood, log-likelihood, expectation, derivative of log-likelihood, log-normalizing-constant, and random sociomatrix generation functions.

On the C side, similar functions exist, but becuase of static typing, are also provided for ``continuous'' versions of those families.
