extrDNAkmer: The Basic Kmer Descriptor

In wind22zhu/BioMedR: Generating Various Molecular Representations for Chemicals, Proteins, DNAs, RNAs and Their Interactions

Description

The Basic Kmer Descriptor

Usage

extrDNAkmer(x, k = 2, upto = FALSE, normalize = FALSE,
  reverse = FALSE)

Arguments

x	the input data, which should be a list or file type.
k	the k value of kmer, it should be an integer larger than 0.
upto	generate all the kmers: 1mer, 2mer, ..., kmer. The output feature vector is the combination of all these kmers. The default value of this parameter is False.
normalize	with this option, the final feature vector will be normalized based on the total occurrences of all kmers. Therefore, the elements in the feature vectors represent the frequencies of kmers. The default value of this parameter is False.
reverse	make reverse complements into a single feature, The default value of this parameter is False. if reverse is True, this method returns the reverse compliment kmer feature vector.

Details

This function calculates the basic kmer descriptor

Value

A vector

Note

if the parameters normalize and upto are both True, and then the feature vector is the combination of all these normalized kmers, e.g. the combination of normalized 1-kmer and normalized 2-kmer when k=2, normalize=True, upto=True.
