build_GO_SS(gene2GO, enrich_GO_terms)

## S4 method for signature 'gene2GO,enrich_GO_terms'
build_GO_SS(gene2GO, enrich_GO_terms)

Arguments

gene2GO

a gene2GO-class object from annotate method.

enrich_GO_terms

a enrich_GO_terms-class from merge_enrich_terms method.

Details

This method use annotate and merge_enrich_terms output objects (see Arguments), and compute the Information content (IC) using the internal code of godata function from GOSemSim package.

Value

a GO_SS-class object required by compute_SS_distances.
