getGeneSetNetworks: Generate geneset networks from an annotated network.

In NetPathMiner: NetPathMiner for Biological Network Construction, Path Mining and Visualization

Description

This function generates geneset networks based on a given netowrk, by grouping vertices sharing common attributes (in the same pathway or compartment).

Usage

getGeneSetNetworks(graph, use.attr = "pathway", format = c("list",
  "pathway-class"))

Arguments

graph	An annotated igraph object..
use.attr	The attribute by which vertices are grouped (tepically pathway, or GO)
format	The output format. If "list" is specified, a list of subgraphs are returned (default). If "pathway-class" is specified, a list of pathway-class objects are returned. Pathway-class is used by graphite package to run several methods of topology-based enrichment analyses.

Value

A list of geneset networks as igraph or Pathway-class objects.
