GetExpressionDistribution: Get the conditional distributions for a set of genes

Description

Get the conditional distributions for a set of genes

Usage

GetExpressionDistribution(expr, mut = NULL, cna.call = NULL, gene = NULL, type = "student", show.plot = FALSE)

Arguments

expr
A matrix of gene expression values where each row corresponds to a patient and each column is a gene.
mut
A data.frame of mutations. The data.frame should have three columns of characters: sample, hgnc_symbol, and variant_type. The variant_type column cat be either "HOMD", "HLAMP", "MISSENSE", "NONSENSE", "FRAMESHIFT", "INFRAME", "SPLICE", "NONSTOP", "STARTGAINED", "SYNONYMOUS", "OTHER", "FUSION", "COMPLEX".
cna.call
A matrix containing the copy number calls, where each element is coded:
  • -2, homozygous deletions
  • -1, hemizygous deletions
  • 0, neutral
  • 1, gain
  • 2, amplifications
gene
A character vector of official HGNC gene names
type
Character, either Gaussian ("gauss") or Student ("student")
show.plot
Logical, specifying whether to plot the fitted model

Value

A list containg the fitted expression distributions
