infomap: Network Clustering with the Map Equation

R bindings for the Infomap network clustering algorithm. Infomap decomposes a network into modules by optimally compressing a description of information flows on the network using the Map Equation. Provides a high-level R6 facade over the SWIG-generated bindings, with idiomatic R helpers for inspecting the modular hierarchy, exporting to data frames, and integrating with the 'igraph' package.
