summarizeIntensitiesAsMedian: Summarizes the probe intensity as median of replicates spotted

Description

As the probes are spotted onto the in quaduplet or duplicate the values have to be combined in some way. This function takes the median of the intensities for the spots. Effectively the mean for duplicates. If less than half of the spots are present an NA is added

Usage

summarizeIntensitiesAsMedian(eset,minSumlength=0, madAdjust=FALSE)

Arguments

eset
ExpressionSet containing probe intensity data to be summarized
minSumlength
The lowest acceptable length of the matrix to calculate a median
madAdjust
if TRUE then summarized data will be filtered according to the MAD median absolute deviation and set to NA if the median is less than MAD

Examples

Run this code

#Calculate the median of a matrix omiting NAs
## Not run: 
# summarizeIntensitiesAsMedian(eset,minSumlength=0,madAdjust=TRUE)
# ## End(Not run)
