GraphAT (version 1.44.0)

getpvalue: Function to obtain P values from the Edge permutation and Node permutation tests respectively

Description

The function takes as inputs two adjacency matrices. Let X denote the observed number of edges in common between the two adjacency matrices. To test the significance of the correlation between the two data sources, the function performs N random edge permutations and random node permutations respectively. For each permutation test, the function outputs the proportion of N realizations that resulted in X edges or more at the intersection of the two datasources

Usage

getpvalue(act.mat, nonact.mat, num.iterations = 1000)

Arguments

act.mat

Adjacency matrix corresponding to first data source. That is, the i,j element of this matrix is 1 if data source one specifies a functional link between genes i and j

nonact.mat

Adjacency matrix corresponding to first data source. That is, the i,j element of this matrix is 1 if data source two specifies a functional link between genes i and j

num.iterations

Number of realizations from random edge (node) permutation to be obtained

Value

from Random Edge Permutation and the second element is the P value from Random Node Permutation

Details

We note that the first adjacency matrix, denoted act.mat is the data source that is permutated with respect to edges or notes

Examples

act.mat <- matrix(0,3,3)
act.mat[2,1] <- 1 
act.mat[3,1] <- 1
nonact.mat  <- matrix(0,3,3)
nonact.mat[2,1] <- 1
nonact.mat[3,2] <- 1
p.val <- getpvalue(act.mat, nonact.mat, num.iterations = 100)
print(p.val)
