Describing objects

Description

Each class in the SBML DOM extends the Describable class and thus has a describe method, which describes an object with a short string. This is used by the show method to output terse textual representations of the DOM.

Usage

describe(object, ...)

Arguments

object

The object to be described.

...

Additional arguments for methods.

Value

A short textual (string) representation of object.

Describable objects

An object that extends Describable has a method for the describe generic, and by default Describable objects are shown by printing the output of describe. Note that Describable is a virtual tag class, no objects may be created from it.

Describable methods

show

SOSDesign

Description

Specifies the reaction names and their parameter settings for each run in a batch experiment. It extends matrix; each column corresponds to a parameter in the model and each row should hold the parameter settings for one run of the experiment.

Details

It is often desirable to explore the state space of a model by adjusting its initial parameter settings. One could do this by modifying the model itself for each experiment, but this class aims to provide a more convenient and systematic means of running experiments in batch, over a range of parameter settings. The results of the experiment will then contain the output from each run, which may then be compared.

The design is specified as a matrix, and each column in the matrix should correspond to a parameter defined in an SBML model. The column names should identify the parameters. These are not to be confused with the simulation parameters specified in SOSProtocol, which control how the simulation is executed. These should be and are designed to be kept constant across the runs.

There are two different types of parameters: global and local (reaction) parameters. Global parameters may correspond to a Species quantity, Compartment size, or model-level Parameter value. These should be identified in the column names by the id of the corresponding SBML element. The element in the reactions slot for one of these parameters should be the empty string.

The second type of parameter specifies the value of a Parameter element within the KineticLaw of a reaction. These should be named by the id of the Parameter. They also should be namespaced by the containing Reaction id, which is stored in the corresponding element of the reactions slot.

Objects from the Class

Objects can be created by calls of the form new("SOSDesign", data, nrow, ncol, byrow, dimnames, ...). This is the same as initializing a matrix.

Slots

.Data:

Object of class "matrix", holding the parameter settings.

reactions:

Object of class "character" of length the number of columns, holding the reaction IDs for parameters local to a reaction (i.e. KineticLaw Parameters). For global parameters, the corresponding value should be the empty string.

Extends

Class "matrix", from data part. Class "ExperimentDesign", directly. Class "array", by class "matrix", distance 2. Class "structure", by class "matrix", distance 3. Class "vector", by class "matrix", distance 4, with explicit coerce.

Methods

signature(object = "SOSDesign"): gets the reactions slot.

reactions<-

signature(object = "SOSDesign"): sets the reactions slot.

SOS Experiment

Description

Implementation of Experiment for simulating SBML models using the SOS: (S)BML (O)DE (S)olver library.

Details

The general workflow for running a simulation:

  1. Create or import an SBML DOM.

  2. Customize the model, for example by adding perturbation Events.

  3. Wrap the SBML DOM in a SOSSubject, e.g. new("SOSSubject", dom).

  4. Optionally construct a SOSDesign for running the experiment in batch over several sets of model parameter settings.

  5. Optionally construct a SOSProtocol for specifying the time points and other parameters controlling the simulation.

  6. Construct an instance of this class that groups the subject, design and protocol.

  7. Run simulate on the SOSExperiment, optionally specifying the number of iterations and the random seed.

  8. Analyze the returned SOSResult, perhaps starting by converting it to a time series with as.ts and making some plots.

Objects from the Class

Objects can be created by calls of the form new("SOSExperiment", ...).

Slots

protocol:

Object of class SOSProtocol, where the simulation parameters are specified.

design:

Object of class SOSDesign, specifying model parameters for each run of a batch experiment.

subject:

Object of class SOSSubject, containing the Model to be simulated.

result:

Object of class SOSResult containing the result of the simulation.

Extends

Class Experiment, directly.

Methods

simulate

signature(object = "SOSExperiment"): simulate(object, nsim = 10, seed, ...): Simulates the SBML document in the subject slot according to the design points in design and parameters in protocol for nsim iterations, using seed as the random seed. Returns an instance of SOSExperiment, which now should include a SOSResult for analysis.

SOSProtocol

Description

Holds the parameters controlling the execution of the simulation using the SBML ODE Solver library.

Details

Most users will probably set only the times slot, either directly or through the timeStep slot and the nsim parameter to simulate.

Objects from the Class

Objects can be created by calls of the form new("SOSProtocol", ...). Each argument in ... should correspond to one of the slots described below.

Slots

times:

A "numeric" vector indicating the time points at which to evaluate the model. Defaults to tail(seq(0, by = timeStep, length.out = nsim + 1), -1). The model is always evaluated at t = 0. This slot is ignored when indefinite (below) is TRUE.

timeStep:

A scalar "numeric" value, giving the length in time between model evaluations. This is used when calculating the default value of times, above, but is otherwise only relevant when the indefinite slot, below, is TRUE. Defaults to 1.

indefinite:

A scalar "logical", indicating whether the simulation should run indefinitely, i.e. until one of the stopping conditions is met. See haltOnEvent and haltOnSteadyState below. Defaults to FALSE.

atol:

Scalar "numeric", the absolute tolerance in integration error. Defaults to 1e-18.

rtol:

Scalar "numeric", the relative tolerance in integration error. Defaults to 1e-10.

maxStep:

Sclar "numeric", the maximum number of steps for integration. Not to be confused with timeStep, etc, above, which control the simulation time points. Defaults to 10000.

odeMethod:

Scalar "character" naming the method for solving ODEs. Either "bdf" (the default) or "adams-moulton".

iterMethod:

Scalar "character", naming the iteration method used by the ODE solver, either "newton" (the default) or "functional".

maxOrder:

Scalar "numeric" indicating maximum order for the ODE solver. Defaults to 5.

sensMethod:

Scalar "character" naming the method for sensitivity analysis. One of "none" (the default and currently the only valid option), "simultaneous", "staggered" or "staggered1".

haltOnEvent:

Scalar "logical" indicating whether the simulation should halt when the model emits an Event. This allows the model to stop the simulation when some state is reached. Defaults to FALSE.

haltOnSteadyState:

Scalar "logical", indicating whether to halt when a steady state is detected. Defaults to FALSE.

useJacobian:

Scalar "logical" indicating whether to use Jacobian ASTs (TRUE, the default) or the internal approximation in the CVODES library.

storeResults:

Scalar "logical" indicating whether to store the entire time course (TRUE, the default) or just the last time point. Just for performance.

Extends

Class "ExperimentProtocol", directly.

Methods

No methods defined with class "SOSProtocol" in the signature.

SBML type "StoichiometryMath"

Description

Dynamically defines the stoichiometry of a SpeciesReference.

Instantiation

Objects can be created by calls of the form new("StoichiometryMath", ...).

Slots

math:

Object of class "expression" that evaluates to the stoichiometric coefficient.

metaId:

Object of class "character" that is an XML ID "described" by an RDF resource. This links an SBML element to an RDF resource. RDF may appear anywhere in an SBML element, but is usually placed inside the annotation element.

notes:

Object of class "character" containing user-readable XHTML notes about an element.

annotation:

Object of class "character" containing additional machine-readable information about an element, usually as RDF, such as BioPAX. This is where application-specific data belongs.

cvTerms:

Object of class "list" containing instances of CVTerm associated with this element.

sboTerm:

Object of class "integer" identifying a term in the Systems Biology Ontology (SBO).

Extends

Class "SBase", directly.

Methods

math

signature(object = "StoichiometryMath"): gets the math slot

math<-

signature(object = "StoichiometryMath"): sets the math slot
