Class Method Summary

• .run(algorithm, object, parameters = nil) ⇒ Object

  Generic method to execute algorithms Algorithms should: - accept a Compound, an Array of Compounds or a Dataset as first argument - optional parameters as second argument - return an object corresponding to the input type as result (eg. Compound -> value, Array of Compounds -> Array of values, Dataset -> Dataset with values.

Class Method Details

.run(algorithm, object, parameters = nil) ⇒ Object

Generic method to execute algorithms Algorithms should:

- accept a Compound, an Array of Compounds or a Dataset as first argument
- optional parameters as second argument
- return an object corresponding to the input type as result (eg. Compound -> value, Array of Compounds -> Array of values, Dataset -> Dataset with values

Parameters:

• Input (OpenTox::Compound, Array, OpenTox::Dataset) —

  object

• Algorithm (Hash) —

  parameters

Returns:

• Algorithm result
