ktspair (version 1.0)

cv2: Crossvalidation with chosen pairs of genes

Description

This function computes the performance of the model where the pairs of genes has been selected by the user.

Usage

cv2(indice, dat, grp, cross = 5, display = FALSE, length = 40, seed = NULL, med = FALSE, healthy = NULL)

Arguments

indice

The pairs that should be used to construct the ktsp object

dat

Can either be (a) a matrix of m lines (the gene expressions) and n columns (the observations) or (b) an eSet object.

grp

Can either be (a) a character (or numeric) vector indicating the group of each observations or (b) an integer indicating the column of pData(dat) that represents the group of the observations.

cross

The number of fold that should be used in the crossvalidation.

display

Allows the user to avoid the function ktspcalc() to print waring message over the loop.

length

This paramters allows the used to control the length of the list used in the C code.

seed

Allow the user to set a seed.

med

If the mean of the median between the two groups for each gene should be substracted to the dataset or not.

healthy

This variable is used to determine which group will be considerer as the healthy group (specificity). Need to give the label of the group.

Value

k

The selected value for k

accuracy

The estimated percentage of correct prediction reached by the k-TSP with the chosen pairs of genes.

sensitivity

The estimated sensitivity reached by the k-TSP with the chosen pairs of genes.

specificity

The estimated specificity reached by the k-TSP with the chosen pairs of genes.

Details

This function is used to compute the performance reached by the model where the pairs of genes have been chosen by the user.
