probe.parameters
A list with tau2 (probe variance), quantile.basis (basis for quantile normalization in log2 domain), and optionally affinity (probe affinities). The probe.parameters$tau2 and probe.parameters$affinity are lists, each element corresponding to a probeset and containing a parameter vector over the probes. The quantile.basis is a vector over the probes, the probes need to be listed in the same order as in tau2 and affinity. probe.parameters can be optionally provided as a data frame.
