Hypergeometric.test: Hypergeometric.test

In NetSci: Calculates Basic Network Measures Commonly Used in Network Medicine

Hypergeometric.test

Description

Calculates the significance of an overlap of two sets using an hypergeometric test. It is a wrapper of the 'phyper' function.

Usage

Hypergeometric.test(
  success,
  universe_success,
  universe_failure,
  size_collected,
  lower.tail = FALSE
)

Arguments

success	Is the number of elements in the overlap of the sets.
universe_success	Is the number of elements of the set of interest.
universe_failure	Is the number of elements of the set of the other set.
size_collected	The total of elements in the universe
lower.tail	Should the test be calculated on the lower tail? (Hypothesis test is lower than)

Value

the p-value for the hypergeometric test.

Examples

require(magrittr)
s = 10; S = 15; f = 10; T = 30
Hypergeometric.test(success = s,
universe_success = S,
universe_failure = f,
size_collected = T
)
