Hi All,
Thank you for your replies so far. I was hoping I could get some
more input from you on this issue. It seems to me that I have hit a
dead end here and would really appreciate some feedback. I have
followed all the suggestions you have mentioned but they still this
is stuck. Earlier I thought that it was a "factor" issue but now
even that is not the error. Here is the script and the error. Thanks
for your help. I have attached the sample test file as well as the
training file in case you would like to run it locally.
---------------------------------
library(seqinr)
library("kernlab")
> str(mars500_1_df)
'data.frame': 256 obs. of 501 variables:
All of which are factors with 4 levels
testSeq_fa=read.fasta("temp1.fasta")
testSeq_seq=t(getSequence(testSeq_fa))
testSeq_df=as.data.frame(testSeq_seq,stringsAsFactors=FALSE)
testSeq_df = cbind(Class="-",testSeq_df)
testSeq_df = data.frame(lapply(testSeq_df,factor))
> str(testSeq_df)
'data.frame': 20 obs. of 501 variables:
$ V9 : Factor w/ 3 levels "a","c","t": 2 1 2 1 3 2 3 2 3 1 ...
$ V9 : Factor w/ 3 levels "a","c","t": 2 1 2 1 3 2 3 2 3 1 ...
$ V26 : Factor w/ 3 levels "a","g","t": 2 1 1 1 1 3 1 3 1 3 ...
...and about 10 more...
So I think you were closer but not quite there yet.
> for(i in 11:501){if (length(levels(testSeq_df[,i])) == 3)
levels(testSeq_df[,i])<- c(a="a",g="g",c="c",c="t")}

[1] - - - - + - + - - - - + + + - - - - - +
Levels: - +
YES, it WAS (and still is) a "factor issue". You were shown how to
look at objects with str. Why have you not adopted the practice?
