Sample Size Calculation for RNA-Seq Experimental Design
Description
We propose a procedure for sample size calculation while
controlling false discovery rate for RNA-seq experimental design. Our
procedure depends on the Voom method proposed for RNA-seq data analysis
by Law et al. (2014) and the sample size
calculation method proposed for microarray experiments by Liu and Hwang
(2007) . We develop a set of functions
that calculates appropriate sample sizes for two-sample t-test for RNA-seq
experiments with fixed or varied set of parameters. The outputs also contain a
plot of power versus sample size, a table of power at different sample sizes,
and a table of critical test values at different sample sizes.
