ROCR (version 1.0-1)

ROCR.hiv: Data set: Support vector machines and neural networks applied to the prediction of HIV-1 coreceptor usage

Description

Linear support vector machines (libsvm) and neural networks (R package nnet) were applied to predict usage of the coreceptors CCR5 and CXCR4 based on sequence data of the third variable loop of the HIV envelope protein.

Usage

data(ROCR.hiv)

format

A list consisting of the SVM (ROCR.hiv$hiv.svm) and NN (ROCR.hiv$hiv.nn) classification data. Each of those is in turn a list consisting of the two elements $predictions and $labels (10 element list representing cross-validation data).
