RMA preprocess BufferedMatrix: RMA preprocessing functions that work on BufferedMatrix objects
Description
This group of functions can be used to apply the RMA
background correction, Quantile normalization and Median polish
summarization to data stored in a BufferedMatrix object.
Usage
bg.correct.BufferedMatrix(x, copy=TRUE)
normalize.BufferedMatrix.quantiles(x, copy=TRUE)
BufferedMatrix.bg.correct.normalize.quantiles(x, copy=TRUE)
Arguments
copy
should the
BufferedMatrix
be
copied or should the input object be changed on output Value
normalize.BufferedMatrix.quantiles
and
bg.correct.BufferedMatrix
a
BufferedMatrix
is
returned. The function
median.polish.summarize
returns a matrix
.The function BufferedMatrix.bg.correct.normalize.quantiles
carries out both pre-processing steps with a single command.
