  <dc:title>Fit, Simulate, and Diagnose Hierarchical Exponential-Family
Models for Big Networks</dc:title>
  <dc:title>R package bigergm version 1.2.6</dc:title>
  <dc:subject>CRAN Task View: NetworkAnalysis (https://CRAN.R-project.org/view=NetworkAnalysis)</dc:subject>
  <dc:description>A toolbox for analyzing and simulating large networks based on hierarchical exponential-family random graph models (HERGMs).'bigergm' implements the estimation for large networks efficiently building on the 'lighthergm' and 'hergm' packages. Moreover, the package contains tools for simulating networks with local dependence to assess the goodness-of-fit.</dc:description>
