Description Usage Arguments Value Examples

View source: R/build_coexp_expressionSet.R

Description

The function generates a dense coexpression network from expression data stored in the expressionSet data type. Correlation coefficicents are used as to weight the edges of the nodes (genes). Calls build_coexp_network.
