This function allows to plot the heatmap of the transition states obtained by the chromHMM learnModel function.

This function takes the transitions_x.txt file as input, where x is the number of states used in the learnModel function.

Go to the chromHMM main page to get more information about chromHMM: http://compbio.mit.edu/ChromHMM/

transition2hm(data, states = c("S1", "S2", ...), title = "Main title", subtitle = "Subtitle", xlab = "To", ylab = "From", color = "Tomato", label_size = 2, show_lh = T)

Arguments

data

either a character vector with the file to be loaded or an object of class data.frame obtained by reading the input file with read.delim()

states

a not-null haracter vector with the names of the states defined by crhomHMM. Initially should be set to something as paste("S", 1:n, sep=""), where n is the number of states defined in chromHMM.

title

character vector of length 1 with the title of the heatmap.

subtitle

character vector of lenght 1 with the subtitle of the heatmap.

ylab

character vector of length 1 with the label to be shown in the y-axis of the heatmap. Default: "From".

xlab

character vector of length 1 with the label to be shown in the x-axis of the heatmap. Default: "To".

color

character vector of length 1 with the color to be used to color the heatmap. Default: "Cornflowrblue".

lh_size

numeric of length 1 with the size of the labels. Default: 2.

show_lh

logical of length 1 indicating whether to show the numbers used to plot the heatmap.
