reviqrFilter: Reverse interquantile filtering with a mouse click
Description
This function implements a reverse version of the interquantile filtering proposed by Heydebreck in 2004
to select low variance genelevel probe set. To be used to remove putative differentially expressed genes
that will make more difficult the detection of alternative splicing events.
Details
This function can be used in a analysis focused to the detection of alternative splicing events.
The aim of this non specific filtering is to remove the genes that are likely to carry information about
the phenotypes under investigation at gene level. This filtering remove genes that show strong changes within
the experimental points at the gene level.
