Try this:

# test data
mat <- structure(c(1, 0.325141612, 0.002109751, 0.250153137, 0.0223676,
1, 0.342654, 0.1987485, 0.9723831, 0.9644216, 1, 0.7391222, 0.394331,
0.5460461, 0.7080224, 1), .Dim = c(4L, 4L), .Dimnames = list(
    c("a", "b", "c", "d"), c("a", "b", "c", "d")))

library(sna)

# draw edges according to value
gplot(mat, edge.lwd = mat, label = rownames(mat))

# thresholding at 0.5
 gplot(mat > .5, label = rownames(mat))
