npGSEA (version 1.8.0)

sigmaSq-methods: ~~ Methods for Function sigmaSq ~~

Description

This function returns the corresponding variance of the statistic (linear or quadratic) from the npGSEA analysis for a given GeneSet, or a list of these variances for a given GeneSetCollection. This method is applicable for all three approximation methods.

Usage

sigmaSq(object)

Arguments

object

An object of type npGSEAResultNorm, npGSEAResultBeta, npGSEAResultChiSq, npGSEAResultNormCollection, npGSEAResultBetaCollection, or npGSEAResultChiSqCollection

Methods

signature(object = "npGSEAResultNorm")

Returns the variance of the linear statistic for a npGSEAResultNorm object

signature(object = "npGSEAResultBeta")

Returns the variance of the linear statistic for a npGSEAResultBeta object

signature(object = "npGSEAResultChiSq")

Returns the variance of the quadratic statistic for a npGSEAResultChiSq object

signature(object = "npGSEAResultNormCollection")

Returns a list of the variances of the linear statistics for a npGSEAResultNormCollection objects (1 for each set)

signature(object = "npGSEAResultBetaCollection")

Returns a list of the variances of the linear statistics for a npGSEAResultBetaCollection objects (1 for each set)

signature(object = "npGSEAResultChiSqCollection")

Returns a list of the variances of the linear statistics for a npGSEAResultChiSqCollection objects (1 for each set)
