htrx_nfeatures: Total number of features for HTRX

In HTRX: Haplotype Trend Regression with eXtra Flexibility (HTRX)

Total number of features for HTRX

Description

The total number of features in principle from haplotypes (i.e. interactions between SNPs) generated by Haplotype Trend Regression with eXtra flexibility (HTRX) .

Usage

htrx_nfeatures(nsnp, max_int = NULL, htr = FALSE)

Arguments

nsnp	a positive integer giving the number of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) included in the haplotypes.
max_int	a positive integer which specifies the maximum number of SNPs that can interact. If no value is given (by default), interactions between all the SNPs will be considered.
htr	logical. If htr=TRUE, the function returns the total number of features for HTR. By default, htr=FALSE.

Details

The total number of features in principle is 3^nsnp-1 for haplotypes containing interactions between all different numbers of SNPs. However, if max_int < nsnp, i.e. only the interactions between at most max_int SNPs are investigated, there will be fewer total number of features.

Value

htrx_nfeatures returns a positive integer giving the total number of features that each analysis includes.

Examples

## the total number of haplotypes consisted of 6 SNPs
## for at most 3-SNP interactions
htrx_nfeatures(nsnp=6,max_int=3)
