FindMyFriends (version 1.2.2)

manualGrouping: Define gene grouping manually

Description

In cases where results from other algorithms are wished to be imported into the FindMyFriends framework, this method ensures that the proper formatting is done. The grouping can be defined as an integer vector with an element for each gene. The value of each element is then used as the gene group classifier. Alternatively groups can be defined by a list of integer vectors. Each element of the list defines a group and the content of each element refers to gene indexes.

Usage

manualGrouping(object, groups)
"manualGrouping"(object, groups)
"manualGrouping"(object, groups)

Arguments

object

A pgVirtual subclass

groups

Either a list or integer vector defining the grouping

Value

An object of the same class as 'object'.

Methods (by class)

• object = pgVirtual,groups = integer: manual grouping defined by integer vector
• object = pgVirtual,groups = list: manual grouping defined by list

Examples

testPG <- .loadPgExample()

# Load grouping data
groups <- system.file('extdata', 'examplePG', 'groupsWG.txt', 
    package='FindMyFriends'
)
groups <- scan(groups, what=integer(), quiet=TRUE)

# Do the grouping
testPG <- manualGrouping(testPG, groups)
