Description

Quantile normalization to a reference set.

Usage

normalize.quantiles2(X, Reference.Quantiles)

Arguments

X

A matrix of probe intensity data to be reference quantile normalized.

Reference.Quantiles

A vector of the reference quantiles that the probe intensities of a sample is normalized to.

Value
