DianaParamSelection: DianaParamSelection

In nathansam/CircadianTools: Collection of Tools for Detecting Rhythmic Genes

Description

Runs DIANA (DIvisive ANAlysis) clustering with differing numbers of partitions and returns validation metrics.

Usage

DianaParamSelection(
  dataset = NULL,
  distance = NULL,
  k = c(2, 5, 10),
  metric = "euclidean",
  nthreads = 4,
  scale = TRUE
)

Arguments

dataset	A transcriptomics dataset. Preferably filtered first. First columns should be gene names. All other columns should be expression levels.
distance	A distance matrix. If a distance matrix has already been created (such as by using the DistanceGen function), the matrix can be passed to this function to save time. If a distance matrix is not provided then it will be generated by the function.
k	A numeric vector giving the number of clusters to be evaluated.
metric	The distance metric to be used to calculate the distances between genes. See parallelDist::parDist for all accepted arguments. Also allows the option of 'abs.correlation'. Not used if a distance matrix is provided.
nthreads	The number of threads to be used for parallel computations.If NULL then the maximum number of threads available will be used.
scale	Logical. If TRUE then each gene will be scaled

Examples

k.options <- seq(2,10)
diana.validation <- DianaParamSelection(Laurasmappings, k=k.options,
                                         nthreads = 2)
