colMaxs: Column and row maximums for HDF5Matrix

In BigDataStatMeth: Title: Scalable Statistical Computing with HDF5-Backed Matrices

Column and row maximums for HDF5Matrix

Description

Block-wise computation of column and row maximums.

Usage

colMaxs(x, ...)

## S3 method for class 'HDF5Matrix'
colMaxs(
  x,
  paral = NULL,
  wsize = NULL,
  threads = NULL,
  save_to = NULL,
  overwrite = TRUE,
  ...
)

rowMaxs(x, ...)

## S3 method for class 'HDF5Matrix'
rowMaxs(
  x,
  paral = NULL,
  wsize = NULL,
  threads = NULL,
  save_to = NULL,
  overwrite = TRUE,
  ...
)

Arguments

x	An HDF5Matrix object.
...	Ignored.
paral	Logical or NULL. Enable OpenMP parallelisation.
wsize	Integer or NULL. Block size for HDF5 reads (NULL = auto).
threads	Integer or NULL. Number of OpenMP threads (NULL = auto).
save_to	Where to save the result (see Details). NULL returns a plain R vector; a character string "group/dataset" saves in the same file as x; a named list list(file = "f.h5", path = "group/dataset") saves in a different file. In both non-NULL cases an HDF5Matrix handle is returned.
overwrite	Logical. Overwrite an existing dataset at save_to? (Currently always TRUE when save_to is not NULL.)

Value

A numeric vector (when save_to = NULL) or an HDF5Matrix handle to the persisted result.
