In GeneAnswers: Integrated Interpretation of Genes

Description

A function to display a network related to given concepts of a GeneAnswer instance

Usage

geneAnswersConceptRelation(x, showCats=c(1:5), conceptsIDs=NULL, directed=TRUE, direction=c('down', 'up', 'both'), catTerm=TRUE, catID=FALSE, nameLength='all', ...)

Arguments

x	a GeneAnswers instance
showCats	a numeric or string vector specified categories
conceptsIDs	a vector or a data frame or matrix containing possible relative concepts, see details
directed	logic, the network is a directed or not
direction	search direction, it could be 'up', 'down' and 'both'. Valid for directed network only.
catTerm	a logic value to specify whether mapping category IDs to category names
catID	a logic value to specify whether show category IDs when catTerm is set to TRUE
nameLength	show how many first letters for long term names, 'all' for full name
...	other parameters used by 'getConnectedGraph'

Details

conceptsIDs could be a character vector or a data frame or a matrix. As a character vector, it is a group of concept IDs or names depending on the given GeneAnswers instance, which are used to be a group of filters to draw a network relative to given concepts specified by showCats. When it is a data frame or matrix, it could be a 2- or 3-column data frame or matrix. The column 2 is always used to be represent nodes color, while the 3rd column is for size of nodes if available.

Value

return a invisible list representing the network.
