FIN.data {bionetdata}R Documentation

Functional Interaction Network data for human.

Description

Functional Interaction data obtained from the supplemental materials of a paper written by Wu and colleagues: 'A human functional protein interaction network and its application to cancer data analysis'. Data are represented through a binary named matrix and represent the presence or absence of gene-gene functional interactions. The original network is composed by more than 9000 genes. The network contained in the bionetdata R package is a reduced version containing 2033 nodes and obtained using the walktrap.community function of the R package igraphi. The walktrap.community function is an implementation of a community detection method developed by Pons and Latapy based on a between vertices similarity measure computed by means of a random walk.

Usage

data(FIN.data)

Format

Binary named matrix. Entry FIN.data[i,j] = 1 if there is a functional interaction between gene i and j, otherwise FIN.data[i,j] = 0.
