This function cleans up a meta network data frame by removing self-interactions, calculating the mean interaction values for duplicated source-target pairs, and keeping only interactions with values of 1 or -1.

Usage

meta_network_cleanup(meta_network)

Arguments

meta_network

A data frame with columns 'source', 'interaction', and 'target'.

Value

A cleaned up meta network data frame.

Examples

# Create a meta network data frame
example_meta_network <- data.frame(
source = c("A", "B", "C", "D", "A", "B", "C", "D", "A"),
interaction = c(1, 1, 1, -1, 1, -1, 1, -1, 1),
target = c("B", "C", "D", "A", "C", "D", "A", "B", "B")
)

# Clean up the example meta network
cleaned_meta_network <- meta_network_cleanup(example_meta_network)
print(cleaned_meta_network)
