sparse stress graph layout

stress majorization for larger graphs based on a set of pivot nodes.

layout_with_sparse_stress(g, pivots, weights = NA, iter = 500)

layout_igraph_sparse_stress(g, pivots, weights = NA, iter = 500, circular)

Arguments

g

igraph object

pivots

number of pivots

weights

ignored

iter

number of iterations during stress optimization

circular

not used

Value

matrix of xy coordinates

Details

The layout_igraph_* function should not be used directly. It is only used as an argument for plotting with 'igraph'. 'ggraph' natively supports the layout.
