Wrapper function for gene expression statistics preprocessing for SODEGIR analysis
Description
Wrapper function for gene expression statistics preprocessing for SODEGIR analysis.
Usage
# SODEGIR_GEstatistics(.Object, pData_classColumn=NULL,
# referenceGroupLabel=NULL,
# statisticType=c("tstatistic", "FC", "FCmedian", "eBayes"),
# singleSampleOutput=TRUE, varianceAll=FALSE)
SODEGIR_GEstatistics(.Object, ...)
Arguments
.Object |
An object of class ExpressionSet containing gene expression input data
|
... |
See below
- pData_classColumn:
-
Column of phenoData slot from the ExpressionSet object, containing the label of sample classes
- referenceGroupLabel:
-
Specify which class label is used for the reference sample used
in computing statistics for differential expression.
- statisticType:
-
Stastistic for differential expression that is computed on input
data. Possible values are "tstatistic", "FC" (Fold Change),
"FCmedian" (fold change computed on medians)
- singleSampleOutput:
-
Logical, if TRUE a statistic comparing each sample with the
reference group is computed.
- varianceAll:
-
This parameter affect the computation only when
singleSampleOutput is TRUE.
varianceAll is itself a logical parameter. If TRUE,
all pathological (e.g. tumor) samples
and all normal (reference) samples are used to estimate
variance in the comparison of individual pathological samples
to the normal reference, as described in the
original SODEGIR apper by Bicciato et al. (Nucleic Acids Res. 2009).
The original SODEGIR statistic for Gene Expression was based on
the SAM score. However, since July 2018 the samr package is no more available in CRAN.
Therefore in the current PREDA version the
varianceAll=TRUE parameter can't be used as SAM is not available.
When singleSampleOutput is TRUE and a different statisticType
is used, the variance is actually computed using only the normal
(reference) samples.
If FALSE (default value), the computation of statistics for single sample VS
reference comparisons only take into account the variance in the
reference group of samples.

Details
Using an ExpressionSet object as input,
statistics for differential expression are computed
comparing each sample with the reference group.
Value
The output is returned as a matrix.
