Makes list of feature sets from features metadata

Creates a list of feature sets from features metadata.

Usage

make_feature_sets_from_fm(mo_data, col_names, combine_omics_sets = FALSE)

Arguments

mo_data

A MultiDataSet-class object.

col_names

Named list of character, with one element per dataset for which feature sets should be generated. The name of each element should correspond to the name of a dataset, and the value should be a column name from the feature metadata of the corresponding dataset to use as set ID.

combine_omics_sets

Logical, can sets contain features from different omics datasets? If FALSE (the default), feature sets are created for each omics separately. If two sets from different omics have the same ID, they will be made unique.

Value

a named list, where each element corresponds to a set, and contains a vector of features ID of all features belonging to that set.
