Bio::Search::Result::CrossMatchResult(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation Bio::Search::Result::CrossMatchResult(3pm)

NAME

Bio::Search::Result::CrossMatchResult - CrossMatch-specific subclass of Bio::Search::Result::GenericResult

SYNOPSIS

    # Working with iterations (CrossMatch results)
    $result->next_iteration();
    $result->num_iterations();
    $result->iteration();
    $result->iterations();

# See Bio::Search::Result::GenericResult for information about working with Results.

# See Bio::Search::Iteration::IterationI # for details about working with iterations.

# TODO: # * Show how to configure a SearchIO stream so that it generates # CrossMatchResult objects.

DESCRIPTION

This object is a subclass of Bio::Search::Result::GenericResult and provides some operations that facilitate working with CrossMatch and CrossMatch results.

For general information about working with Results, see Bio::Search::Result::GenericResult.

Mailing Lists

User feedback is an integral part of the evolution of this and other Bioperl modules. Send your comments and suggestions preferably to the Bioperl mailing list. Your participation is much appreciated.

Support

Please direct usage questions or support issues to the mailing list:

bioperl-l@bioperl.org

rather than to the module maintainer directly. Many experienced and reponsive experts will be able look at the problem and quickly address it. Please include a thorough description of the problem with code and data examples if at all possible.

APPENDIX

The rest of the documentation details each of the object methods. Internal methods are usually preceded with a _

new

 Title   : new
 Usage   : my $obj = Bio::Search::Result::CrossMatchResult->new();
 Function: Builds a new Bio::Search::Result::CrossMatchResult object
 Returns : Bio::Search::Result::CrossMatchResult
 Args    : See Bio::Search::Result::GenericResult();
           The following parameters are specific to CrossMatchResult:
             -iterations  => array ref of Bio::Search::Iteration::IterationI objects
             -inclusion_threshold => e-value threshold for inclusion in the
                                     CrossMatch score matrix model (blastpgp)

hits

This method overrides Bio::Search::Result::GenericResult::hits to take into account the possibility of multiple iterations, as occurs in CrossMatch reports.

If there are multiple iterations, all 'new' hits for all iterations are returned. These are the hits that did not occur in a previous iteration.

See Also: Bio::Search::Result::GenericResult::hits

next_hit

This method overrides Bio::Search::Result::GenericResult::next_hit to take into account the possibility of multiple iterations, as occurs in CrossMatch reports.

If there are multiple iterations, calling next_hit() traverses the all of the hits, old and new, for each iteration, calling next_hit() on each iteration.

See Also: Bio::Search::Iteration::GenericIteration::next_hit

num_hits

This method overrides Bio::Search::Result::GenericResult::num_hits to take into account the possibility of multiple iterations, as occurs in CrossMatch reports.

If there are multiple iterations, calling num_hits() returns the number of 'new' hits for each iteration. These are the hits that did not occur in a previous iteration.

See Also: Bio::Search::Result::GenericResult::num_hits

add_iteration

 Title   : add_iteration
 Usage   : $report->add_iteration($iteration)
 Function: Adds a IterationI to the stored list of iterations
 Returns : Number of IterationI currently stored
 Args    : Bio::Search::Iteration::IterationI

next_iteration

 Title   : next_iteration
 Usage   : while( $it = $result->next_iteration()) { ... }
 Function: Returns the next Iteration object, representing all hits
           found within a given CrossMatch iteration.
 Returns : a Bio::Search::Iteration::IterationI object or undef if there are no more.
 Args    : none

iteration

 Usage     : $iteration = $blast->iteration( $number );
 Purpose   : Get an IterationI object for the specified iteration
             in the search result (CrossMatch).
 Returns   : Bio::Search::Iteration::IterationI object
 Throws    : Bio::Root::NoSuchThing exception if $number is not within 
             range of the number of iterations in this report.
 Argument  : integer (optional, if not specified get the last iteration)
             First iteration = 1

num_iterations

 Usage     : $num_iterations = $blast->num_iterations; 
 Purpose   : Get the number of iterations in the search result (CrossMatch).
 Returns   : Total number of iterations in the report
 Argument  : none (read-only)

number_of_iterations

Same as num_iterations.

round

Same as iteration.

iterations

 Title   : iterations
 Usage   : my @iterations = $result->iterations
 Function: Returns the IterationI objects contained within this Result
 Returns : Array of L<Bio::Search::Iteration::IterationI> objects
 Args    : none

no_hits_found

 Usage     : $nohits = $blast->no_hits_found( $iteration_number );
 Purpose   : Get boolean indicator indicating whether or not any hits
             were present in the report.
             This is NOT the same as determining the number of hits via
             the hits() method, which will return zero hits if there were no
             hits in the report or if all hits were filtered out during the parse.
             Thus, this method can be used to distinguish these possibilities
             for hitless reports generated when filtering.
 Returns   : Boolean
 Argument  : (optional) integer indicating the iteration number (CrossMatch)
             If iteration number is not specified and this is a CrossMatch result,
             then this method will return true only if all iterations had
             no hits found.

set_no_hits_found

 Usage     : $blast->set_no_hits_found( $iteration_number ); 
 Purpose   : Set boolean indicator indicating whether or not any hits
             were present in the report.
 Returns   : n/a
 Argument  : (optional) integer indicating the iteration number (CrossMatch)

_next_iteration_index

 Title   : _next_iteration_index
 Usage   : private

rewind

 Title   : rewind
 Usage   : $result->rewind;
 Function: Allow one to reset the Iteration iterator to the beginning
           Since this is an in-memory implementation
 Returns : none
 Args    : none

inclusion_threshold

 Title   : inclusion_threshold
 Usage   : my $incl_thresh = $result->inclusion_threshold; (read-only)
 Function: Gets the e-value threshold for inclusion in the CrossMatch 
           score matrix model (blastpgp) that was used for generating the report
           being parsed.
 Returns : number (real) or undef if not a CrossMatch report.
 Args    : none
