rejectNode: Rejects a node/hypothesis and updates the graph accordingly.

Description

Rejects a node/hypothesis and updates the graph accordingly.

Usage

rejectNode(graph, node, upscale = FALSE, verbose = FALSE, keepWeights = FALSE)

Value

An updated graph of class graphMCP or entangledMCP.

Arguments

graph

A graph of class graphMCP or entangledMCP.

node

A character string specifying the node to reject.

upscale

Logical. If upscale=TRUE then the weights of all non-rejected nodes are scaled so that the sum is equal to 1. This forces keepWeights=FALSE to reduce confusion, since otherwise the sum of weights could become bigger than 1.

verbose

Logical scalar. If TRUE verbose output is generated during sequentially rejection steps.

keepWeights

Logical scalar. If FALSE the weight of a node without outgoing edges is set to 0 if it is removed. Otherwise it keeps its weight.

m[1,3] <- m[2,4] <- m[3,2] <- m[4,1] <- 1

a <- 0.05
w <- c(1/2, 1/2, 0, 0)
g <- matrix2graph(m, w)
gMCP(g, pvalues=p1, alpha=a)
rejectNode(graph = g, node = 4)
