Computes the rank history for top-ranked genes

Description

Computes the rank history for top-ranked genes.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'BigBang':
geneRankStability(o,
        filter="none",
        subset=TRUE,
        gene.names=TRUE,
        lastSolutionFirst=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.
gene.names TRUE for naming the result with the stored $geneNames in oject BigBang. Other character to name-specific.
lastSolutionFirst Order of the results. TRUE the las solutions is given in the first column.

Value

A matrix which genes are fit in rows and solutions in columns.
