COSNet (version 1.6.0)

reg_data: Function to compute the regularized version of COSNet (Frasca et al. 2013)

Description

This function modifies the weights and the thresholds of the network to realized the COSNet regularization.

Usage

reg_data(W, theta, eta, M, m, pos_num)

Arguments

W

square symmetric named matrix of the network weights. The components of W are in the [0,1] interval. The i,j-th component is the weight between neuron i and neuron j. The components of the diagonal of W are 0

theta

vector of the neuron activation thresholds

eta

real value corresponding to the eta regularization coefficient in the energy function (Frasca et al. 2013). If eta = 0 no regularization is applied. The higher the value of eta, the more the influence of the regularization term

M

positive neuron activation value

m

negative neuron activation value

pos_num

number of expected positive neurons in the equilibrium state of the network

Value

list of two element:

W

the regularized connection matrix

theta

regularized threshold vector

Examples

library(bionetdata);
data(Yeast.STRING.data);
n <- nrow(Yeast.STRING.data);
dim(Yeast.STRING.data);
range(Yeast.STRING.data);
## setting values for parameter alpha, for the rate of positive examples,
## for neuron thresholds and for eta parameter
alpha <- 1;
pos.rate <- 0.01;
thresholds <- runif(n);
range(thresholds);
eta <- 0.001;
a <- reg_data(Yeast.STRING.data, thresholds, eta, sin(alpha),
    -cos(alpha), ceiling(pos.rate*n));
## new connection matrix
dim(a$W);
range(a$W);
## new thresholds
range(a$theta);
