Create a mismatch kernel object and the kernel matrix
mismatchKernel(k = 3, m = 1, r = 1, normalized = TRUE, exact = TRUE, ignoreLower = TRUE, presence = FALSE) ## S4 method for signature 'MismatchKernel' getFeatureSpaceDimension(kernel, x)
k |
length of the substrings also called kmers; this parameter defines the size of the feature space, i.e. the total number of features considered in this kernel is |A|^k, with |A| as the size of the alphabet (4 for DNA and RNA sequences and 21 for amino acid sequences). Default=3 |
m |
number of maximal mismatch per kmer. The allowed value range is between 1 and k-1. The processing effort for this kernel is highly dependent on the value of m and only small values will allow efficient processing. Default=1 |
r |
exponent which must be > 0 (see details section in spectrumKernel). Default=1 |
normalized |
a kernel matrix or explicit representation generated with this kernel will be normalized(details see below). Default=TRUE |
exact |
use exact character set for the evaluation (details see below). Default=TRUE |
ignoreLower |
ignore lower case characters in the sequence. If the parameter is not set lower case characters are treated like uppercase. Default=TRUE |
presence |
if this parameter is set only the presence of a kmers will be considered, otherwise the number of occurances of the kmer is used. Default=FALSE |
kernel |
a sequence kernel object |
x |
one or multiple biological sequences in the form of a

Creation of kernel object
The function 'mismatchKernel' creates a kernel object for the mismatch
kernel. This kernel object can then be used with a set of DNA-, RNA- or
AA-sequences to generate a kernel matrix or an explicit representation for
this kernel. For values different from 1 (=default value) parameter
r
leads to a transfomation of similarities by taking each element of
the similarity matrix to the power of r. If normalized=TRUE
, the
feature vectors are scaled to the unit sphere before computing the
similarity value for the kernel matrix. For two samples with the feature
vectors x
and y
the similarity is computed as:
s=(x^T y)/(|x| |y|)
For an explicit representation generated with the feature map of a
normalized kernel the rows are normalized by dividing them through their
Euclidean norm. For parameter exact=TRUE
the sequence characters
are interpreted according to an exact character set. If the flag is not
set ambigous characters from the IUPAC characterset are also evaluated.
The annotation specific variant (for details see positionMetadata)
and the position dependent variant (for details see
annotationMetadata) are not available for this kernel.
Creation of kernel matrix
The kernel matrix is created with the function getKernelMatrix
or via a direct call with the kernel object as shown in the examples below.
mismatchKernel: upon successful completion, the function returns a kernel
object of class MismatchKernel
.
of getDimFeatureSpace: dimension of the feature space as numeric value
