Onto-class: Definition for S4 class Onto

Description

Onto has 2 slots: nodeInfo and adjMatrix

Value

Class Onto

Slots

nodeInfo

An object of S4 class InfoDataFrame, describing information on nodes/terms.

adjMatrix

An object of S4 class AdjData, containing adjacency data matrix (for a direct graph), with rows for parent (arrow-outbound) and columns for children (arrow-inbound)

Creation

An object of this class can be created via: new("Onto", nodeInfo, adjMatrix)

Methods

Class-specific methods:

• dim(): retrieve the dimension in the object
• adjMatrix(): retrieve the slot 'adjMatrix' in the object
• nodeInfo(): retrieve the slot 'nodeInfo' (as class InfoDataFrame) in the object
• nInfo(): retrieve nodeInfo (as data.frame) in the object
• nodeNames(): retrieve node/term names (ie, row names of nodeInfo) in the object
• term_id(): retrieve term id (ie, column 'term_id' of nodeInfo) in the object, if any
• term_name(): retrieve term id (ie, column 'term_name' of nodeInfo) in the object, if any
• term_namespace(): retrieve term id (ie, column 'term_namespace' of nodeInfo) in the object, if any
• term_distance(): retrieve term id (ie, column 'term_distance' of nodeInfo) in the object, if any

Standard generic methods:

• str(): compact display of the content in the object
• show(): abbreviated display of the object
• as(matrix, "Onto"): convert a matrix to an object of class Onto
• as(dgCMatrix, "Onto"): convert a dgCMatrix (a sparse matrix) to an object of class Onto
• [i]: get the subset of the same class

Access

Ways to access information on this class:

• showClass("Onto"): show the class definition
• showMethods(classes="Onto"): show the method definition upon this class
• getSlots("Onto"): get the name and class of each slot in this class
• slotNames("Onto"): get the name of each slot in this class
• selectMethod(f, signature="Onto"): retrieve the definition code for the method 'f' defined in this class

Examples

# create an object of class Onto, only given a matrix
adjM <- matrix(runif(25),nrow=5,ncol=5)
as(adjM, "Onto")

# create an object of class Onto, given a matrix plus information on nodes
# 1) create nodeI: an object of class InfoDataFrame
data <- data.frame(term_id=paste("Term", 1:5, sep="_"),
term_name=I(LETTERS[1:5]), term_namespace=rep("Namespace",5),
term_distance=1:5, row.names=paste("Term", 1:5, sep="_"))
nodeI <- new("InfoDataFrame", data=data)
nodeI
# 2) create an object of class Onto
# VERY IMPORTANT: make sure having consistent names between nodeInfo and adjMatrix
adjM <- matrix(runif(25),nrow=5,ncol=5)
colnames(adjM) <- rownames(adjM) <- rowNames(nodeI)
x <- new("Onto", adjMatrix=adjM, nodeInfo=nodeI)
x
