Converts the result from pathRanker into something suitable for pathClassifier or pathCluster.

pathsToBinary(ypaths)

Arguments

ypaths

The result of pathRanker.

Value

A list with the following elements.

paths

All paths within ypaths converted to a binary string and concatenated into the one matrix.

y

The response variable.

pidx

An matrix where each row specifies the location of that path within the ypaths object.

Details

Converts a set of pathways from pathRanker into a list of binary pathway matrices. If the pathways are grouped by a response label then the pathsToBinary returns a list labeled by response class where each element is the binary pathway matrix for each class. If the pathways are from pathRanker then a list wiht a single element containing the binary pathway matrix is returned. To look up the structure of a specific binary path in the corresponding ypaths object simply use matrix index by calling ypaths[[ybinpaths\$pidx[i,]]], where i is the row in the binary paths object you wish to reference.

Examples

  ## Prepare a weighted reaction network.
  ## Conver a metabolic network to a reaction network.
 data(ex_sbml) # bipartite metabolic network of Carbohydrate metabolism.
 rgraph <- makeReactionNetwork(ex_sbml, simplify=TRUE)
#> This graph was created by an old(er) igraph version.
#>  Call `igraph::upgrade_graph()` on it to use with the current igraph version.
#> For now we convert it on the fly...

  ## Assign edge weights based on Affymetrix attributes and microarray dataset.
 # Calculate Pearson's correlation.
  data(ex_microarray)  # Part of ALL dataset.
  rgraph <- assignEdgeWeights(microarray = ex_microarray, graph = rgraph,
    weight.method = "cor", use.attr="miriam.uniprot",
    y=factor(colnames(ex_microarray)), bootstrap = FALSE)
#> 100 genes were present in the microarray, but not represented in the network.
#> 55 genes were couldn't be found in microarray.
#> Assigning edge weights for label ALL1/AF4 
#> Assigning edge weights for label BCR/ABL 
#> Assigning edge weights for label E2A/PBX1 
#> Assigning edge weights for label NEG 

  ## Get ranked paths using probabilistic shortest paths.
 ranked.p <- pathRanker(rgraph, method="prob.shortest.path",
          K=20, minPathSize=6)
#> Extracting the 20 most probable paths for ALL1/AF4
#> Extracting the 20 most probable paths for BCR/ABL
#> Extracting the 20 most probable paths for E2A/PBX1
#> Extracting the 20 most probable paths for NEG

  ## Convert paths to binary matrix.
  ybinpaths <- pathsToBinary(ranked.p)
  p.cluster <- pathCluster(ybinpaths, M=3)
  plotClusters(ybinpaths, p.cluster, col=c("red", "green", "blue") )
