\title{ Graph data simulation }

\description{
Simulating multivariate distributions with different types of underlying graph structures, including 
\code{"random"}, \code{"cluster"}, \code{"scale-free"}, \code{"hub"}, \code{"fixed"}, \code{"circle"}, \code{"AR(1)"}, \code{"AR(2)"}, \code{"star"}, and \code{"lattice"}. 
Based on the underling graph structure, it generates four different types of datasets, including \emph{multivariate Gaussian}, \emph{non-Gaussian}, \emph{discrete}, or \emph{mixed} data. 
This function can be used also for only simulating graphs by option \code{n=0}, as a default. 
}

\usage{
bdgraph.sim( p = 10, graph = "random", n = 0, type = "Gaussian", prob = 0.2, 
             size = NULL, mean = 0, class = NULL, cut = 4, b = 3,
             D = diag( p ), K = NULL, sigma = NULL, vis = FALSE )
}

\arguments{
  \item{p}{The number of variables (nodes).}
  \item{graph}{The graph structure with option \code{"random"}, \code{"cluster"}, \code{"scale-free"}, \code{"hub"}, \code{"fixed"}, \code{"circle"}, \code{"AR(1)"}, \code{"AR(2)"}, \code{"star"}, and \code{"lattice"}. 
     It also could be an adjacency matrix corresponding to a graph structure (an upper triangular matrix in which 
     \eqn{g_{ij}=1} if there is a link between notes \eqn{i} and \eqn{j}, otherwise \eqn{g_{ij}=0}). 
    }
  \item{n}{The number of samples required. Note that for the case \code{n = 0}, only graph is generated. }
  \item{type}{Type of data with four options \code{"Gaussian"} (default), \code{"non-Gaussian"}, \code{"discrete"}, \code{"mixed"}, and \code{"binary"}.
	  For option \code{"Gaussian"}, data are generated from multivariate normal distribution.
	  For option \code{"non-Gaussian"}, data are transfered multivariate normal distribution to continuous multivariate non-Gaussian distribution.
	  For option \code{"discrete"}, data are transfered from multivariate normal distribution to discrete multivariat distribution.
	  For option \code{"mixed"}, data are transfered from multivariate normal distribution to mixture of 'count', 'ordinal', 'non-Gaussian', 'binary' and 'Gaussian', respectively. 
	  For option \code{"binary"}, data are generated directly from the joint distribution, in this case \eqn{p} must be less than \eqn{17}. 
	}

  \item{prob}{ If \code{graph="random"}, it is the probability that a pair of nodes has a link.}
  \item{size}{The number of links in the true graph (graph size).}
  \item{mean}{A vector specifies the mean of the variables.}
  \item{class}{ If \code{graph="cluster"}, it is the number of classes. }
  \item{cut}{ If \code{type="discrete"}, it is the number of categories for simulating discrete data.}
 
  \item{b}{The degree of freedom for G-Wishart distribution, \eqn{W_G(b, D)}.}
  \item{D}{The positive definite \eqn{(p \times p)} "scale" matrix for G-Wishart distribution, \eqn{W_G(b, D)}. The default is an identity matrix.}

  \item{K}{ If \code{graph="fixed"}, it is a positive-definite symmetric matrix specifies as a true precision matrix. }
  \item{sigma}{ If \code{graph="fixed"}, it is a positive-definite symmetric matrix specifies as a true covariance matrix.}
 
  \item{vis}{Visualize the true graph structure.}
}

\value{
	An object with \code{S3} class \code{"sim"} is returned:
	\item{data}{Generated data as an (\eqn{n \times p}{n x p}) matrix.}
	\item{sigma}{The covariance matrix of the generated data.}
	\item{K}{The precision matrix of the generated data.}
	\item{G}{The adjacency matrix corresponding to the true graph structure.}
}
