compareHits: Searching for common hits between different scoring methods

Description

Searches for common hits between different scoring methods.

Usage

compareHits(hitVec1, hitVec2, namesHitVec1, namesHitVec2)

Arguments

hitVec1, hitVec2

the two binary hit vectors to be compared

namesHitVec1, namesHitVec2

the names of the siRNAs corresponding to the hit vectors

Value

Returns a character vector indicating which siRNAs are identified as hits in two different hit scoring schemes.
