initConnections()

Generate N x N adjacent matrix with K incoming connections per node

Syntax

connection = initConnections(n,k)
connection = initConnections(n,kMin,kMax)
connection = initConnections(connnectionMatrix)

Description

initConnections(n,k) generates n x n adjacent matrix (defined as in graph theory) with k incoming connections per node selected at random (uniformly distributed).

initConnections(n,kMin,kMax) generates n x n adjacent matrix (defined as in graph theory) with at average k=(kMin + kMax)/2 incoming connections per node selected at random (uniformly distributed). Each node has at least kMin and at most kMax incoming connections per node (k ~ U[kMin, kMax]).

initConnections(connnectionMatrix) generates N x N adjacent matrix using connectionMatrix to set the incoming connections.

Input:
n - (Optional) Number of nodes
k - (Optional) Number of connections per node
kMin - (Optional) Minimal number of connections per node
kMax - (Optional) Maximal number of connections per node 
connectionMatrix - (Optional) n x n adjacent matrix

Output: 
connection - n x n adjacent matrix with at average k incoming connections per node
