An S4 class to represent a Stochastic Block Model with a sampling scheme for missing data, extend icl_model-class. Such model can be used to cluster graph vertex, and model a square adjacency matrix $$X$$ with the following generative model : $$\pi \sim Dirichlet(\alpha)$$ $$Z_i \sim \mathcal{M}(1,\pi)$$ $$\theta_{kl} \sim Beta(a_0,b_0)$$ $$X_{ij}|Z_{ik}Z_{jl}=1 \sim \mathcal{B}(\theta_{kl})$$ Missing value are supposed to be generated afterwards, the observation process correspond to a binary matrix $$R$$ of the same size as $$X$$, with $$R_{ij}=1$$ for observed entries and $$R_{ij}=0$$ for missing ones. $$R$$ may be supposed to be MAR: $$\epsilon \sim Beta(a_{0obs},b_{0obs})$$ $$R_{ij} \sim \mathcal{B}(\epsilon)$$ this correspond to the "dyad" sampling scheme. But the sampling scheme can also be NMAR: $$\epsilon_{kl} \sim Beta(a_{0obs},b_{0obs})$$ $$R_{ij}|Z_{ik}Z_{jl}=1 \sim \mathcal{B}(\epsilon_{kl})$$ this correspond to the "block-dyad" sampling scheme. This class mainly store the prior parameters value $$\alpha,a_0,b_0,a_{0obs},b_{0obs}$$ of this generative model in the following slots:

## Slots

name

name of the model

alpha

Dirichlet over cluster proportions prior parameter (default to 1)

a0

Beta prior parameter over links (default to 1)

b0

Beta prior parameter over no-links (default to 1)

type

define the type of networks (either "directed" or "undirected", default to "directed")

sampling

sampling_priors

define the sampling process priors parameters (list with a0obs and b0obs fields.)
