huge.inference: Graph inference

Description

Implements the inference for high dimensional graphical models, including Gaussian and Nonparanormal graphical models We consider the problems of testing the presence of a single edge and the hypothesis is that the edge is absent.

Usage

huge.inference(data, T, adj, alpha = 0.05, type = "Gaussian", method = "score")

Arguments

data

The input n by d data matrix(n is the sample size and d is the dimension).

T

The estimated inverse of correlation matrix of the data.

adj

The adjacency matrix corresponding to the graph.

alpha

The significance level of hypothesis.The default value is 0.05.

type

The type of input data. There are 2 options: "Gaussian" and "Nonparanormal". The default value is "Gaussian".

method

When using nonparanormal graphical model. Test method with 2 options: "score" and "wald". The default value is "score".

Value

An object is returned:

data

The n by d data matrix from the input.

p

The d by d p-value matrix of hypothesis.

error

The type I error of hypothesis at alpha significance level.

Details

For Nonparanormal graphical model we provide Score test method and Wald Test. However it is really slow for inferencing on Nonparanormal model, especially for large data.
