iterateBMAglm.wrapper {iterativeBMA} | R Documentation |
This function repeatedly calls bic.glm
from the
BMA
package until all variables are exhausted.
The data is assumed to consist of
two classes. Logistic regression is used for classification.
iterateBMAglm.wrapper (sortedA, y, nbest=10, maxNvar=30, maxIter=20000, thresProbne0=1)
sortedA |
data matrix where columns are variables and rows are observations. The variables (columns) are assumed to be sorted using a univariate measure. In the case of gene expression data, the columns (variables) represent genes, while the rows (observations) represent samples or experiments. |
y |
class vector for the observations (samples or experiments) in the training data. Class numbers are assumed to start from 0, and the length of this class vector should be equal to the number of rows in sortedA. Since we assume 2-class data, we expect the class vector consists of zero's and one's. |
nbest |
a number specifying the number of models of each size
returned to bic.glm in the BMA package.
The default is 10. |
maxNvar |
a number indicating the maximum number of variables used in
each iteration of bic.glm from the BMA package.
The default is 30. |
maxIter |
a number indicating the maximum of iterations of
bic.glm . The default is 20000. |
thresProbne0 |
a number specifying the threshold for the posterior
probability that each variable (gene) is non-zero (in
percent). Variables (genes) with such posterior
probability less than this threshold are dropped in
the iterative application of bic.glm . The default
is 1 percent. |
In this function, the variables are assumed to be sorted, and
bic.glm
is called repeatedly. In the first application of
the bic.glm
algorithm, the top maxNvar
univariate
ranked genes are used. After each application of the bic.glm
algorithm, the genes with probne0
< thresProbne0
are dropped, and the next univariate ordered genes are added
to the BMA window.
The function iterateBMAglm.train
calls BssWssFast
before
calling this function.
Using this function, users can experiment with alternative
univariate measures.
If all variables are exhausted, an object of class
bic.glm
returned by the last iteration
of bic.glm
. Otherwise, -1 is returned.
The object of class bic.glm
is a list consisting
of the following components:
namesx |
the names of the variables in the last iteration of
bic.glm . |
postprob |
the posterior probabilities of the models selected. |
deviance |
the estimated model deviances. |
label |
labels identifying the models selected. |
bic |
values of BIC for the models. |
size |
the number of independent variables in each of the models. |
which |
a logical matrix with one row per model and one column per variable indicating whether that variable is in the model. |
probne0 |
the posterior probability that each variable is non-zero (in percent). |
postmean |
the posterior mean of each coefficient (from model averaging). |
postsd |
the posterior standard deviation of each coefficient (from model averaging). |
condpostmean |
the posterior mean of each coefficient conditional on the variable being included in the model. |
condpostsd |
the posterior standard deviation of each coefficient conditional on the variable being included in the model. |
mle |
matrix with one row per model and one column per variable giving the maximum likelihood estimate of each coefficient for each model. |
se |
matrix with one row per model and one column per variable giving the standard error of each coefficient for each model. |
reduced |
a logical indicating whether any variables were dropped before model averaging. |
dropped |
a vector containing the names of those variables dropped before model averaging. |
call |
the matched call that created the bma.lm object. |
The BMA
and Biobase
packages are required.
