mvGST (version 1.6.0)

mvGST.other: mvGST Other Functions

Description

Internal functions used by the main functions of mvGST (graphCell, profileTable, go2GeneSets, pickOut, and p.adjust.SFL):
changeTO10
changes p-values in matrix to -1, 0, or 1, indicating significance.
combinePvalues
Uses Stouffer's method to combine p-values in gene sets
convertPvalues
converts p-values from one-sided to two-sided and vice versa
cut
cuts out any all 0 rows from the matrix of results
fillInList
fills in list of gene sets, ensuring that any gene in a child set is also in the parent set
finalResults
counts the number of gene sets corresponding to each profile and contrast and creates results.table
geneNameConvertRows
handles one-to-many and many-to-one problems of gene name translation
generateGeneSets
creates list of gene sets
go2GeneSet
creates a single matrix showing which profile a gene set fits into for each contrast tested
hartung
Combines a set of p-values using Hartung's modified inverse normal method
interactiveGraph
Creates a GO Graph of selected GO terms
method2
Uses Hartung's method to combine p-values and handles many-to-one problem of gene name translation
method3
Handles one-to-many problem of gene name translation by eliminating all but one of the many
method4
Combines method2 and method3
mvGSTObject
Creates an mvGST object
mvSort
Sorts results.table by row totals
oneSideBYAdjust
Convert p-values to two-sided, then uses Benjamini-Yekutieli adjustment, and converts back to one-sided
print.mvGST
prints the results.table in a clean way
print.summary.mvGST
prints the summary of an mvGST object
profileCombine
Determines profiles of each gene set at each contrast
profiles
Defines the possible profiles
separate
splits genes (and their p-values) into gene sets
summary.mvGST
creates a summary of an mvGST object
tableColumns
Creates the column names for the results.table
distributeWeight
helper function for p.adjust.SFL
getCurrentChildren
helper function for p.adjust.SFL
makeCoherent
helper function for p.adjust.SFL
getAncestorsAndOffspring
helper function for p.adjust.SFL
turnListAround
From globaltest package, helper function for p.adjust.SFL
