riboflavin: Riboflavin Production Data

In LFM: Laplace Factor Model Analysis and Evaluation

Riboflavin Production Data

Description

This dataset contains measurements of riboflavin (vitamin B2) production by Bacillus subtilis, a Gram-positive bacterium commonly used in industrial fermentation processes. The dataset includes n = 71 observations with p = 4088 predictors, representing the logarithm of the expression levels of 4088 genes. The response variable is the log-transformed riboflavin production rate.

Usage

data(riboflavin)

Format

y

Log-transformed riboflavin production rate (original name: q_RIBFLV). This is a continuous variable indicating the efficiency of riboflavin production by the bacterial strain.

x

A matrix of dimension 71 \times 4088 containing the logarithm of the expression levels of 4088 genes. Each column corresponds to a gene, and each row corresponds to an observation (experimental condition or time point).

Examples

# Load the riboflavin dataset
