Compute $$X.row^T X.row$$ for a Filebacked Big Matrix X after applying a particular scaling to it.

big_crossprodSelf(
X,
fun.scaling = big_scale(center = FALSE, scale = FALSE),
ind.row = rows_along(X),
ind.col = cols_along(X),
block.size = block_size(nrow(X))
)

# S4 method for FBM,missing
crossprod(x, y)

## Arguments

X

An object of class FBM.

fun.scaling

A function with parameters X, ind.row and ind.col, and that returns a data.frame with $center and $scale for the columns corresponding to ind.col, to scale each of their elements such as followed: $$\frac{X_{i,j} - center_j}{scale_j}.$$ Default doesn't use any scaling. You can also provide your own center and scale by using as_scaling_fun().

ind.row

An optional vector of the row indices that are used. If not specified, all rows are used. Don't use negative indices.

ind.col

An optional vector of the column indices that are used. If not specified, all columns are used. Don't use negative indices.

block.size

Maximum number of columns read at once. Default uses block_size.

x

A 'double' FBM.

y

Missing.

## Value

A temporary FBM, with the following two attributes:

• a numeric vector center of column scaling,

• a numeric vector scale of column scaling.

## Matrix parallelization

Large matrix computations are made block-wise and won't be parallelized in order to not have to reduce the size of these blocks. Instead, you may use Microsoft R Open or OpenBLAS in order to accelerate these block matrix computations. You can also control the number of cores used with bigparallelr::set_blas_ncores().

## Examples

X <- FBM(13, 17, init = rnorm(221))
true <- crossprod(X[])

# No scaling
K1 <- crossprod(X)
class(K1)
#> [1] "matrix"
all.equal(K1, true)
#> [1] TRUE

K2 <- big_crossprodSelf(X)
class(K2)
#> [1] "FBM"
#> attr(,"package")
#> [1] "bigstatsr"
K2\$backingfile
#> [1] "C:\\Users\\au639593\\AppData\\Local\\Temp\\RtmpAlUR66\\file23844b4a3212.bk"
all.equal(K2[], true)
#> [1] TRUE

# big_crossprodSelf() provides some scaling and subsetting
# Example using only half of the data:
n <- nrow(X)
ind <- sort(sample(n, n/2))
K3 <- big_crossprodSelf(X, fun.scaling = big_scale(), ind.row = ind)
true2 <- crossprod(scale(X[ind, ]))
all.equal(K3[], true2)
#> [1] TRUE
