getROIs-methods: Extracts regions of possible inversion events from "scan"
Description
lists the regions of interest in a matrix, given by the overlapping of significant trial segments (of fixed window seize) that may be part of an inversion event.
Usage
getROIs(object, thBic)
Arguments
object
scan. Cromosome scanned for inversions with trial segments of fixed window size.
thBic
BIC threshold above which overlapping segments are considered for the definition of each ROI
Value
matrix
Methods
signature(object = "scan")
list of regions of interest
Details
ROIs are defined as overlapping trial segments with BIC greater than thBIC. The output is a matrix for which each row is one ROI. The first two columns give intervals defining the left brake-points and the two subsequent columns are the intervals for the right brake-points.
ROIs are given in mega-basis.
