influential: Identification and Classification of the Most Influential Nodes

Provides functions for classification and ranking of candidate features, reconstruction of networks from adjacency matrices and data frames, topological analysis, and calculation of centrality measures. The package includes the SIRIR model, which combines leave-one-out cross-validation with the conventional SIR model to rank vertex influence in an unsupervised manner. Additional functions support assessment of dependence and correlation between network centrality measures, as well as estimation of conditional probabilities of deviation from their corresponding means in opposite directions.
