خلاصه	The Directed Exponential Random Graph Model (Directed ERGM) is a family of statistical models for directed networks that estimates the probability of observing a given directed graph as a function of structural configurations — such as reciprocity, transitive triads, and in-degree centralization — and node or dyad covariates, enabling principled inference about the social processes that generate directed ties.	The Stochastic Block Model (SBM), introduced by Holland, Laskey and Leinhardt (1983), is a probabilistic generative model for graphs that assigns nodes to latent blocks and parametrically estimates the connection probabilities between blocks. It is the foundational approach for community detection, core-periphery identification, and hierarchical structure discovery in network analysis.
