computeRawQ: Computes RawQ

Description

Computes the RawQ value of a single Affymetrix GeneChip

Usage

computeRawQ(fname, intensity, probe.index, probe.zoneID, bgCells, NumberZones, celfile.path = NULL)

Arguments

fname

character string with the filename of the GeneChip

intensity

vector of intensities for the GeneChip

probe.index

vector of indices for each probe

probe.zoneID

vector of zone ID numbers for each probe

bgCells

number of background cells for the GeneChip

NumberZones

number of zones on the GeneChip

celfile.path

character denoting the path for the *.CEL files specified in fname

Value

the RawQ value for the given array

Details

Calculates RawQ using the algorithms described in the Affymetrix Statistical Algorithms Description Document for a single GeneChip. This is an internal function that will generally not be accessed directly.
