[R-sig-phylo] Noob Questions

2014-05-15 Thread Matt Curcio
Greetings all,
I am interested in learning more about how phylogenetic tree are produced
and would like to find a few general review articles on the subject.

Can anyone suggest some papers or source material?

[R-sig-phylo] Looking for Data Mining Tools

2014-03-11 Thread Matt Curcio
Greetings all,
I am a new graduate student in bioinformatics and I am looking for some
Data Mining tools and a little help.  I am looking for a 7 week project
that entails data mining but I am not familiar with the tools, much less
the space.  I was thinking about taking some DNA chip data from GEO dataset
and using decision trees. I was told to look into NCBI tools but I have not
found this specifically yet.

Any suggestions would be welcomed,
Matt


PS. I am not sure if this is the appropriate forum but I do know it usually
starts with a question. I would be happy if someone could steer me to the
appropriate R forum for this type of work.

[R-sig-phylo] ape package gives 'Error in FI[i]:LA[i] : NA/NaN argument'

2014-02-26 Thread Matt Curcio
Greetings all,,
I received this error while using R version 2.15.1 and ape 3.0.11.
Error in FI[i]:LA[i] : NA/NaN argument

I have tried several approaches:

ref = NC_000913.3
seq1 = read.GenBank(ref)
Error in FI[i]:LA[i] : NA/NaN argument

ref = read.csv(file=test2.csv, head=T)

ref = str(ref)

# Where test2.csv is in two rows

'data.frame':   1 obs. of  1 variable:
$ seq: Factor w/ 1 level NC+AF8-000913: 1

seq2 = read.GenBank(ref)
Error in FI[i]:LA[i] : NA/NaN argument


I was wondering if someone could lend a hand based on their own experience.
