r-bigmemoryextras 1.36.0 Extension of the bigmemory package
This package defines a BigMatrix
ReferenceClass
which adds safety and convenience features to the filebacked.big.matrix
class from the bigmemory
package. BigMatrix
protects against segfaults by monitoring and gracefully restoring the connection to on-disk data and it also protects against accidental data modification with a filesystem-based permissions system. Utilities are provided for using BigMatrix
-derived classes as assayData
matrices within the Biobase
package's eSet
family of classes. BigMatrix
provides some optimizations related to attaching to, and indexing into, file-backed matrices with dimnames. Additionally, the package provides a BigMatrixFactor
class, a file-backed matrix with factor properties.
