dldaCMA: Diagonal Discriminant Analysis
In CMA: Synthesis of microarray-based classification

Description Usage Arguments Value Note Author(s) References See Also Examples

Performs a diagonal discriminant analysis under the assumption of a multivariate normal distribution in each classes (with equal, diagonally structured) covariance matrices. The method is also known under the name 'naive Bayes' classifier.

For S4 method information, see dldaCMA-methods.

1	dldaCMA(X, y, f, learnind, models=FALSE, ...)

`X`	Gene expression data. Can be one of the following: A `matrix`. Rows correspond to observations, columns to variables. A `data.frame`, when `f` is not missing (s. below). An object of class `ExpressionSet`.
`y`	Class labels. Can be one of the following: A `numeric` vector. A `factor`. A `character` if `X` is an `ExpressionSet` that specifies the phenotype variable. `missing`, if `X` is a `data.frame` and a proper formula `f` is provided. WARNING: The class labels will be re-coded to range from `0` to `K-1`, where `K` is the total number of different classes in the learning set.
`f`	A two-sided formula, if `X` is a `data.frame`. The left part correspond to class labels, the right to variables.
`learnind`	An index vector specifying the observations that belong to the learning set. May be `missing`; in that case, the learning set consists of all observations and predictions are made on the learning set.
`models`	a logical value indicating whether the model object shall be returned
`...`	Currently unused argument.

An object of class cloutput.

As opposed to linear or quadratic discriminant analysis, variable selection is not strictly necessary.

### load Golub AML/ALL data
data(golub)
### extract class labels
golubY <- golub[,1]
### extract gene expression
golubX <- as.matrix(golub[,-1])
### select learningset
ratio <- 2/3
set.seed(111)
learnind <- sample(length(golubY), size=floor(ratio*length(golubY)))
### run DLDA
dldaresult <- dldaCMA(X=golubX, y=golubY, learnind=learnind)
### show results
show(dldaresult)
ftable(dldaresult)
plot(dldaresult)
### multiclass example:
### load Khan data
data(khan)
### extract class labels
khanY <- khan[,1]
### extract gene expression
khanX <- as.matrix(khan[,-1])
### select learningset
set.seed(111)
learnind <- sample(length(khanY), size=floor(ratio*length(khanY)))
### run LDA
ldaresult <- dldaCMA(X=khanX, y=khanY, learnind=learnind)
### show results
show(dldaresult)
ftable(dldaresult)
plot(dldaresult)
