transitiveReduction {rBiopaxParser}R Documentation

This function generates the transitive reduction of the supplied graph.

Description

This function is deprecated due to nem dropping out of Bioconductor in BioC 4.0. This function generates the transitive reduction of the supplied graph. In short: if A->B->C AND A->C then edge A->C is removed. This is a simple convenience wrapper for the NEM function transitive.reduction. Be aware of implications on the edge weights!
