Predicts class for samples from chromosomes

Description

Predicts class for samples from chromosomes.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'BigBang':
classPredictionMatrix(o,
        filter="none",
        subset=TRUE,
        classFunc=o$data$classFunc,
        classes=NULL,
        sampleNames=NULL,
        chromosomes=NULL,
        verbose=TRUE,
        use.cache=TRUE,
        ...)

Arguments

filter The BigBang object can save information about solutions that did not reach the goalFitness. filter=="solutions" ensures that only chromosomes that reach the goalFitness are considered. fitlter=="none" take all chromosomes. filter=="nosolutions" consider only no-solutions (for comparative purposes).
subset Second level of filter. subset can be a vector specifying which filtered chromosomes are used. It can be a logical vector or a numeric vector (indexes in order given by $bestChromosomes in BigBang object variable). If it is a numeric vector length one, a positive value means take those top chromosomes sorted by fitness, a negative value take those at bottom.
classFunc The function that provides the class prediction.
classes The known classes if they are different than those in BigBang$classes (or BigBang$data$classes).
sampleNames Sample names if they are different than those in BigBang$classes (or BigBang$data$classes).
chromosomes Specific chromosome list. The default is use the solution from BigBang object filtered by filter and subset.
verbose Display processing information.
use.cache Save/Restore values from previous computations with same parameters.

Details

classFunc is called for each chromosome, therefore this routine can be time consuming depending on the behaviour of classFunc. The default classFunc from configBB.VarSel computes the class by majority of votes using all splits. Use ... for specifying splits, set or any other parameter for classFunc.

Value

A matrix whose rows are samples and columns are classes. Each value is the number of times the sample was predicted as that class.

Examples

   #bb is a BigBang object
   cpm <- classPredictionMatrix(bb)
   cpm
   cm <- confusionMatrix(bb)
   cm
   #equivalent and quicker because classPredictionMatrix is provided
   cm <- confusionMatrix(bb, cpm)
   cm
 
   specificityClass(bb, cm)
   specificityClass(bb, cpm)
   specificityClass(bb)
   # all are equivalent
   sensitivityClass(bb, cpm)
   sensitivityClass(bb, cm)
   sensitivityClass(bb)
   # all are equivalent
