mtk.analyserAddons: The 'mtk.analyserAddons' function

In mtk: Mexico ToolKit library (MTK)

Description

A function used to extend the "mtk" package with new analysis methods programmed as R functions. The mtk.analyserAddons function takes a R file as input and converts it into a mtk compliant class which can be seamlessly integrated into the mtk package.

Usage

mtk.analyserAddons(where = NULL, library = NULL, 
						  authors = NULL, name = NULL,
                          main = NULL,
                          summary = NULL, 
                          plot = NULL,
                          print = NULL)
                          

Arguments

where	NULL or a file holding the R function to convert.
library	NULL or the name of the library if the R function to convert is held in a library.
authors	NULL or information about the authors of the R function.
name	a string to name the method when used with the "mtk" package.
main	the R function which implements the method.
summary	NULL or a subversion of the summary function provided with the method.
plot	NULL or a reprogrammed version of the plot function provided with the method.
print	NULL or a reprogrammed version of the print function provided with the method.

Details

The new method must be programmed according to the following syntax:

main <- function(X, Y, ...) where X is a data.frame holding the experiment design, and Y is a data.frame holding the results produced by the model simulation.

The function main returns a named list with two elements: main and information. The element main holds the result of the sensitivity analysis and the element information is optional, may be used to give supplementary information about the analysis process and the produced results.

Furthermore, in order to report the analysis results more precisely, users can redefine the generic functions: summary (object, ...), plot(x,y, ...), print(x, ...).

Value

invisble()

Examples

# an example implementation of the method "Regression" 
# called here "RegressionTest" is held  in the file
#  "inst/extdata/regressionSI.R"

rFile <- "regressionSI.R"
rFile <- paste(path.package("mtk", quiet = TRUE),
		"/extdata/",rFile,sep = "")


# to convert the method "RegressionTest" to S4 classes
# compliant with the "mtk" package. The generated "mtk" compliant class
# is called "mtkXXXAnalyser.R" where XXX corresponds to the name of the method.

mtk.analyserAddons(where=rFile, authors="H. Monod,INRA",
		 name="RegressionTest",
  		main="regressionSI", print="print.regressionSI",
  	    plot="plot.regressionSI")

# To use the method "RegressionTest" with the package "mtk",
# just source the generated new files

source("mtkRegressionTestAnalyser.R")

## Use the method "RegressionTest" to do sensitivity analysis

#	1) Define the factors
	x1 <- make.mtkFactor(name="x1", distribName="unif",
		 distribPara=list(min=-pi, max=pi))
	x2 <- make.mtkFactor(name="x2", distribName="unif",
    	 distribPara=list(min=-pi, max=pi))
	x3 <- make.mtkFactor(name="x3", distribName="unif", 
    	 distribPara=list(min=-pi, max=pi))
	ishi.factors <- mtkExpFactors(list(x1,x2,x3))

# 	2) Create a workflow with the "Ishigami" model and analyze it with the new method
	ishiReg <- mtkExperiment(expFactors=ishi.factors,
			design="BasicMonteCarlo",designInfo=list(size=20),
			model="Ishigami", 
			analyze="RegressionTest", 
			)
# 	3) Run the workflow and report the results			
	run(ishiReg)
	summary(ishiReg)
