mcapply:所有调度的内核在用户代码中遇到错误 [英] mcapply: all scheduled cores encountered errors in user code

问题描述

以下是我的代码.我正在尝试获取以 .idat 结尾的所有文件(~20000)的列表，并使用 illuminaio::readIDAT 函数读取每个文件.

The following is my code. I am trying get the list of all the files (~20000) that end with .idat and read each file using the function illuminaio::readIDAT.

library(illuminaio)
library(parallel)
library(data.table)

# number of cores to use
ncores = 8

# this gets all the files with .idat extension ~20000 files
files <- list.files(path = './',
                    pattern = "*.idat",
                    full.names = TRUE)

# function to read the idat file and create a data.table of filename, and two more columns
# write out as csv using fwrite
get.chiptype <- function(x)
{
  idat <- readIDAT(x)
  res <- data.table(filename = x, nSNPs = nrow(idat$Quants), Chip = idat$ChipType)
  fwrite(res, file.path = 'output.csv', append = TRUE)
}

# using mclapply call the function get.chiptype on all 20000 files.
# use 8 cores at a time
mclapply(files, FUN = function(x) get.chiptype(x), mc.cores = ncores)

在读取和写入有关 1200 个文件的信息后，我收到以下消息:

After reading and writing info about 1200 files, I get the following message:

Warning message:
In mclapply(files, FUN = function(x) get.chiptype(x), mc.cores = ncores) :
  all scheduled cores encountered errors in user code

我该如何解决?

推荐答案

在某些情况下调用 mclapply() 需要您指定允许多个随机数流的随机数生成器.R 版本 2.14.0 实现了 Pierre L'Ecuyer 的多重伪随机数生成器.

Calling mclapply() in some instances requires you to specify a random number generator that allows for multiple streams of random numbers. R version 2.14.0 has an implementation of Pierre L'Ecuyer's multiple pseudo-random number generator.

尝试在 mclapply() 调用之前添加以下内容，并为my.seed"预先指定值:

Try adding the following before the mclapply() call, with a pre-specified value for 'my.seed':

set.seed( my.seed, kind = "L'Ecuyer-CMRG" );
