Description
Class "rCGH"
is a superclass living on top of
"rCGH-Agilent"
, "rCGH-SNP6"
,
"rCGH-cytoScan"
, and "rCGH-generic"
.
These objects inherit most of the properties of the superclass, and allow
specific parameterizations used during the analysis process.
Objects are created by platform-specific read
functions:
"readAgilent"
, "readAffySNP6"
,
and "readAffyCytoScan"
,
each corresponding to their matched file format.
A supplementary "readGeneric"
allows the user to create a
"rCGH"
object from custom arrays.
Slots described below are used to store sample information and analysis
parameters, as well as segmentation results. All are accessible through specific
"Accessors"
functions.Objects from the Class
Objects can be created by calls of the form new("rCGH", ...)
.
Slots content are updated at each different analysis step, and are accessible
through specific get
functions.See Also
