maxLogLikelihoodCalculator1s(lociHapACounts, lociTotalCounts,
  lociHapANoASEProbs, lociRhos, checkArgs = FALSE)

Arguments

lociHapACounts

counts of haplotype A-supporting reads at individual loci. Must be a vector of non-negative integers.

lociTotalCounts

total read counts of at individual loci. Must be a vector of positive integers.

lociHapANoASEProbs

probabilities of observing haplotype A-supporting reads at individual loci under conditions of no ASE (e.g., vector with all entries set to 0.5, if there is no pre-existing allelic bias at any locus). Must be a vector with entries >0 and <1.

lociRhos

dispersion parameters of beta distribution at individual loci (set to 0 if the read count-generating distribution at the locus is binomial). Must be a numeric vector with entries >=0 and <1.

checkArgs

single boolean specifying whether arguments should be checked for adherence to specifications. DEFAULT: FALSE

Details

Given observed read counts supporting hapltoype A at a collection of loci, the total read counts at those loci, the probablities of observing haplotype A-supporting reads under conditions of no ASE and the dispersion parameters, this function returns a maximum likelihood estimate of the true underlying frequency of haplotype A as well as corresponding value of log-likelihood.

Value

a list with two elements: maximum (MLE of haplotype A frequency) and objective (loglikelihood at MLE). These are the two elements that are output by the optimize() function, which is used internally by the maxLogLikelihoodCalculator1s.
