Description

Create a data simulation with a mix of main and interaction effects.

Usage

createMixedSimulation(
  num.samples = 100,
  num.variables = 100,
  pct.imbalance = 0.5,
  pct.signals = 0.1,
  bias = 0.4,
  label = "class",
  pct.mixed = 0.5,
  mixed.type = c("mainEffect", "interactionScalefree"),
  pct.train = 0.5,
  pct.holdout = 0.5,
  pct.validation = 0,
  save.file = NULL,
  verbose = FALSE
)

Arguments

num.samples	An integer for the number of samples
num.variables	An integer for the number of variables
pct.imbalance	A numeric percentage to indicate proportion of the imbalaced samples. 0 means all controls and 1 mean all cases.
pct.signals	A numeric for proportion of simulated signal variables
bias	A numeric for effect size in simulated signal variables
label	A character vector for the name of the outcome column. class for classification and qtrait for regression
pct.mixed	A numeric percentage to indicate the proportion of each simulation type
mixed.type	A character vector of the mix type of simulations: mainEffect, interactionErdos/interactionScalefree
pct.train	A numeric percentage of samples to use for traning
pct.holdout	A numeric percentage of samples to use for holdout
pct.validation	A numeric percentage of samples to use for testing
save.file	A filename or NULL indicating whether to save the simulations to file
verbose	A flag indicating whether verbose output be sent to stdout

Value

A list with:

train

traing data set

holdout

holdout data set

validation

validation data set

label

the class label/column name

signal.names

the variable names with simulated signals

elapsed

total elapsed time
