FinNet - Quickly Build and Manipulate Financial Networks
Providing classes, methods, and functions to deal with
financial networks. Users can easily store information about
both physical and legal persons by using pre-made classes that
are studied for integration with scraping packages such as
'rvest' and 'RSelenium'. Moreover, the package assists in
creating various types of financial networks depending on the
type of relation between its units depending on the relation
under scrutiny (ownership, board interlocks, etc.), the desired
tie type (valued or binary), and renders them in the most
common formats (adjacency matrix, incidence matrix, edge list,
'igraph', 'network'). There are also ad-hoc functions for the
Fiedler value, global network efficiency, and cascade-failure
analysis.
