WriteExplainedNodesToSifFile: Write explained nodes to Sif file

Description

Outputs a network of explained nodes in .sif file format for producing visualisations using Cytoscape

Usage

WriteExplainedNodesToSifFile(hypothesisnode, signOfHypothesis, network, data, delta, file, display = TRUE)

Arguments

hypothesisnode

a hypothesis node

signOfHypothesis

the direction of change of hypothesis node

network

a computational causal graph

data

a data file

delta

the number of edges across which the hypothesis should be followed

file

a character string (without extension) that determines the names of the files created. Extension is added automatically. Set to NA if not writing to file.

display

determines if the output written to file is also displayed

Value

two files containing paths from hypothesis node to explained nodes in sif format

Examples

hypothesisnode <- "Node0"
signOfHypothesis <- +1
network <- system.file(package='CausalR', 'extdata', 'testNetwork1.sif')
ccg <- CreateCCG(network)
data <- system.file(package='CausalR', 'extdata', 'testData1.txt')
delta <- 2
WriteExplainedNodesToSifFile(hypothesisnode, signOfHypothesis, ccg, data,  delta,
                             file=NA, display=TRUE)
