QuantileNorm: Quantile Normalization

Description

'QuantileNorm' gives the quantile normalization.

Usage

QuantileNorm(Data, Quantile)

Arguments

Data

The data matrix with transcripts in rows and lanes in columns.

Quantile

The quantile the user wishs to use. Should be a number between 0 and 1.

Value

• The function will return a vector contains the normalization factor for each lane.

Details

Use a quantile point to normalize the data.
