When a network is partially observed (here, missing dyads, that is, entries with NA in the adjacency matrix rather than 1 or 0), it is possible to account for the underlying process that generates those NAs. missSBM is an R package for adjusting the popular Stochastic Block Models from network data sampled under various missing data conditions.
