callSegmentationOutliers: Calls single-locus outliers along the genome

Description

Calls single-locus outliers along the genome that have a signal that differ significantly from the neighboring loci.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'default':
callSegmentationOutliers(y, chromosome=0, x=NULL, method="DNAcopy::smooth.CNA", ...,
  verbose=FALSE)

Arguments

y

A numeric vector of J genomic signals to be segmented.

chromosome

(Optional) An integer scalar (or a vector of length J contain a unique value). Only used for annotation purposes.

x

Optional numeric vector of J genomic locations. If NULL, index locations 1:J

method

A character string specifying the Method used for calling outliers.

...

Additional arguments passed to internal outlier detection method.

verbose

See Verbose.

Value

• Returns logical vector of length J.

Missing and non-finite values

Signals as well as genomic positions may contain missing values, i.e. NAs or NaNs. By definition, these cannot be outliers.
