In yiluheihei/NFPdata: Gene semantic similarity data for the network fingerprint in R

NFPdata R Package

This repository holds the gene ontology based gene similarity data package. The data within this package are able to be used with the methods in NFP R package.

There are only one dataset in this package right now:

• geneSimData - KEGG gene semantic similarity based on Gene ontology.

Install Instructions (All platforms)

To install the NFPdata package, we have devised a different deliver mechanism than is used to install the NFP R package containing the methods. The different delivery mechanism was required due to the large size (25mb + and gaining!) of the data associated within this package violating policy setforth by CRAN. Please note that installing the NFPdata package with this delivery mechanism as safe as the install process associated with the NFP R package via CRAN. (Some would argue it is more secure...)

To install the package with an internet connection you can either use:

# Install R devtools
install.packages("devtools")

# Install the package from github
devtools::install_github("yiluheihei/NFPdata")

Alternatively, you can call an installation method within the NFP R package:

NFP::load_geneSimData()
