Plot method for single layer MixMashNet objects

Plotting interface for objects returned by mixMN().

Depending on what, the method can:

what = "network": plot the estimated single-layer network;
what = "intra": plot node-level metrics or edge weights with bootstrap quantile regions at the level stored in the object;
what = "stability": plot node stability within communities based on bootstrap community assignments.

Usage

# S3 method for class 'mixMN_fit'
plot(x, what = c("network", "intra", "stability"), ...)

x: An object of class "mixMN_fit", as returned by mixMN().
what: Type of plot to produce. One of c("network","intra","stability").
...: Additional arguments. Supported arguments depend on what: see the details below.

If what != "network", the function returns a ggplot object. If what = "network", the network is plotted directly.

Network plots (what = "network"): Supported arguments (via ...):

color_by: Node coloring: c("community","none").
edge_color_by: Edge coloring: c("sign","none").
edge_scale: Numeric scaling factor for edge widths (multiplied by abs(weight)).
graphics::plot.igraph arguments: e.g., vertex.size, vertex.label.cex, edge.width, vertex.label.color, etc.

Within-network statistics (what = "intra"): Plots node-level metrics or edge weights with bootstrap quantile regions.

Supported arguments (via ...):

statistics: Character vector of metrics. Options include: "strength", "expected_influence", "closeness", "betweenness", bridge metrics "bridge_strength", "bridge_ei1", "bridge_ei2", "bridge_closeness", "bridge_betweenness", excluded bridge metrics "bridge_strength_excluded", "bridge_ei1_excluded", "bridge_ei2_excluded", "bridge_closeness_excluded", "bridge_betweenness_excluded", and "edges". Different metric families cannot be mixed in the same call (e.g., "edges" cannot be combined with node metrics).
ordering: Node ordering: c("value","alphabetical","community").
standardize: Logical; if TRUE, z-standardize the displayed values within the panel.
exclude_nodes: Optional character vector of node names to remove before plotting.
color_by_community: Logical; if TRUE, color nodes by community when available.
edges_top_n: Integer; when statistics = "edges", keep the top edges by absolute weight.
title: Optional plot title.

Community membership stability (what = "stability"): Plots node stability by community.

Supported arguments (via ...):

title: Plot title. Default: "Node Stability by Community".
cutoff: Optional numeric threshold in $[0,1]$ shown as a dashed vertical line. Use NULL to hide the line. Default: 0.7.

The quantile region level is taken from the fitted object (x$settings$quantile_level); if missing or invalid, a default of 0.95 is used.
