CancerMutationAnalysis (version 1.14.0)

extract.sims.method: Extracts the p-values or q-values from a SetMethodsSims object for a specific method.

Description

This function is used to obtain a single data frame with the p-values or q-values from one of the specific gene-set analysis methods, from a SetMethodsSims object which has the results from simulated datasets.

Usage

extract.sims.method(object, method)

Arguments

object

Object of the class SetMethodsSims.

method

Character string giving the method used for extraction, and whether p-values or q-values are extracted. The string should be one of the column names of the data frame resulting from the cma.set.stat function.

Value

An object of the class SetMethodsSims. See SetMethodsSims for more details.
