calcSplineMI: Calculate mutual information

In larsgr/BSplineMI: Mutual information using B-Spline smoothed bins

Description

Calculate mutual information for an expression matrix using B-Spline binning.

Usage

calcSplineMI(x, nBins, splineOrder, threads = 1)

Arguments

x	Gene expression matrix with genes in rows and samples in columns
nBins	Number of bins
splineOrder	Spline order
threads	if >1 then run in parallel

Value

matrix of mutual information (bits)

Examples

data( riceEx )
calcSplineMI( riceEx[1:5, ], 7, 3)

# compare single CPU vs two CPU's
system.time( mi_1 <- calcSplineMI( riceEx, 7, 3) )
system.time( mi_2 <- calcSplineMI( riceEx, 7, 3, threads = 2) )
identical( mi_1, mi_2 )
