specificityMat {superbiclust}

Specificity Matrix for bicluster output

Description

Computes specificity matrix for biclusters in two bicluster sets

Usage

specificityMat(x, y, type=c("rows", "cols", "both"))

Arguments

x

BiclustSet object containing row and column indicators of bicluster membership, number of biclusters

y

BiclustSet object containing row and column indicators of bicluster membership, number of biclusters

type

whether to compute specificity in two dimensions, row dimension or column dimension

Details

This function operates on BiclustSet objects and computes pairwise similarity based on the common elements between biclusters. Sensitivity inclusion score spe of biclusters A and B is computed as

spe=\frac{|A\cap B|}{|B|}

Value

matrix of pairwise specificities
