Description

This function will keep only rows that have a minimum counts of 1 at least in a min number of samples (default 80%).

Usage

1
degFilter(counts, metadata, group, min = 0.8, minreads = 0)

Arguments

counts

Matrix with expression data, columns are samples and rows are genes or other feature.

metadata

Data.frame with information about each column in counts matrix. Rownames should match colnames(counts).

group

Character column in metadata used to group samples and applied the cutoff.

min

Percentage value indicating the minimum number of samples in each group that should have more than 0 in count matrix.

minreads
