Resumo	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.	Directed modularity analysis extends the classic Newman-Girvan modularity framework to directed graphs, where edges carry a source and a destination. Formalized by Leicht and Newman in 2008, it partitions nodes into communities by maximizing a modularity score that accounts for each node's separate in-degree and out-degree in the null model, making it the standard approach for community detection in citation networks, information flows, and other asymmetric relational data.
