BCBimax {biclust}

The Bimax Bicluster algorithm

Description

Performs Bimax Biclustering based on the framework by Prelic et. al.(2006). It searches for submatrices of ones in a logical matrix. Uses the original C code of the authors.

Usage

## S4 method for signature 'matrix,BCBimax'
biclust(x, method=BCBimax(), minr=2, minc=2, number=100)
## S4 method for signature 'matrix,BCrepBimax'
biclust(x, method=BCrepBimax(), minr=2, minc=2, number=100, maxc=12)

Arguments

x

A logical matrix which represents the data.

method

Here BCBimax, to perform Bimax algorithm

minr

Minimum row size of resulting bicluster.

minc

Minimum column size of resulting bicluster.

number

Number of Bicluster to be found.

maxc

Maximum column size of resulting bicluster.

Value

Returns an object of class Biclust.
