Modifier and Type	Method	Description
`static <V> EdgeMergeFunction<V>`	`averageWeight()`	A merge function that creates a new edge whose weight is the average of the two edges.
`static <V> EdgeMergeFunction<V>`	`keepDuplicate()`	A merge function that keeps the duplicate edge and ignores the original.
`static <V> EdgeMergeFunction<V>`	`keepOriginal()`	A merge function that keeps the original edge and ignores the duplicate.
`static <V> EdgeMergeFunction<V>`	`maxWeight()`	A merge function that creates a new edge whose weight is the maximum of the two edges.
`static <V> EdgeMergeFunction<V>`	`minWeight()`	A merge function that creates a new edge whose weight is the minimum of the two edges.
