simplextree (version 1.0.1)

serialize: Serializes the simplex tree.

Description

Provides a compressed serialization interface for the simplex tree.

Usage

serialize(st)

Arguments

st

a simplex tree.

Details

The serialize/deserialize commands can be used to compress/uncompress the complex into smaller form amenable for e.g. storing on disk (see saveRDS) or saving for later use. The serialization.

Other serialization: deserialize()

Examples

# NOT RUN {
st <- simplex_tree(list(1:5, 7:9))
st2 <- deserialize(serialize(st))
all.equal(as.list(preorder(st)), as.list(preorder(st2)))
# TRUE 

set.seed(1234)
R <- rips(dist(replicate(2, rnorm(100))), eps = pnorm(0.10), dim = 2)
print(R$n_simplices)
# 100 384 851

## Approx. size of the full complex 
print(utils::object.size(as.list(preorder(R))), units = "Kb")
# 106.4 Kb

## Approx. size of serialized version 
print(utils::object.size(serialize(R)), units = "Kb")
# 5.4 Kb
## You can save these to disk via e.g. saveRDS(serialize(R), ...)
# }
