PSEAAC: Pseudo-Amino Acid Composition (Parallel) (PSEAAC)

Description

This function calculates the pseudo amino acid composition (parallel) for each sequence.

Usage

PSEAAC(
  seqs,
  aaIDX = c("ARGP820101", "HOPT810101", "Mass"),
  lambda = 30,
  w = 0.05,
  l = 1,
  threshold = 1,
  label = c()
)

Arguments

seqs

is a FASTA file with amino acid sequences. Each sequence starts with a '>' character. Also, seqs could be a string vector. Each element of the vector is a peptide/protein sequence.

aaIDX

is a vector of Ids or indexes of the user-selected physicochemical properties in the aaIndex2 database. The default values of the vector are the hydrophobicity ids and hydrophilicity ids and Mass of residual in the amino acid index file.

lambda

is a tuning parameter. Its value indicates the maximum number of spaces between amino acid pairs. The number changes from 1 to lambda.

w

(weight) is a tuning parameter. It changes in from 0 to 1. The default value is 0.05.

l

This parameter keeps the value of l in lmer composition. The lmers form the first 20^l elements of the APAAC descriptor.

threshold

is a number between (0 , 1]. It deletes aaIndexes which have a correlation bigger than the threshold. The default value is 1.

label

is an optional parameter. It is a vector whose length is equivalent to the number of sequences. It shows the class of each entry (i.e., sequence).

Value

A feature matrix such that the number of columns is 20^l+(lambda) and the number of rows is equal to the number of sequences.

Examples

# NOT RUN {
filePrs<-system.file("extdata/proteins.fasta",package="ftrCOOL")
mat<-PSEAAC(seqs=filePrs,l=2)
