standardScreeningNumericTrait: Standard screening for numeric traits

Description

Standard screening for numeric traits based on Pearson correlation.

Usage

standardScreeningNumericTrait(datExpr, yNumeric)

Arguments

datExpr
data frame containing expression data (or more generally variables to be screened), with rows corresponding to samples and columns to genes (variables)
yNumeric
a numeric vector giving the trait measurements for each sample

Value

  • List with the following components:
  • IDGene (or variable) identifiers copied from colnames(datExpr)
  • corPearsonPearson correlations of all genes with the trait
  • pvalueStudentStudent p-values of the correlations
  • qvalueStudentq-values of the correlations calculated from the p-values
  • AreaUnderROCarea under the ROC

Details

The function calculates the correlations, associated p-values, area under the ROC, and q-values
