PredActScore {DART} | R Documentation

## Computes the DART activation score of the model signature in the samples of a data set.

### Description

This function computes the DART activation score of the model signature for the samples of a data matrix. This data matrix can be the same data matrix in which DART was applied or it could be a totally independent data set.

### Usage

    PredActScore(prNet.o, data.m)

### Arguments

`prNet.o` | Output `list` object from PruneNet.
`data.m` | A data matrix (numeric) with rows labeling genes/probes and columns labeling samples in which the signature activity scores are desired.

### Value

A list with following elements:

`adj` | Adjacency matrix of the DART network for the genes found in the data set given by `data.m`.
`sign` | The corresponding model signature vector for the genes found in the data set.
`score` | A vector of the signature/pathway activity scores for each sample in the data set.
