getSignaturesFromEstParam: Get signatures from an 'EstimatedParameters' object.

Description Usage Arguments Value Author(s) References See Also Examples

View source: R/getSignaturesFromEstParam.R

Description

'getSignaturesFromEstParam()' takes an EstimatedParameters object (signatures data) as computed by the 'pmsignature' package (by pmsignature::getPMSignature; version 0.3.0) and extracts the signature information. The signatures can then be passed to decomposeTumorGenomes.

Usage

1

Arguments

Param

(Mandatory) A pmsignature::EstimatedParameters object as those produced by the de novo signature construction method pmsignature::getPMSignature.

Value

A list of Shiraishi signatures, one object per signature. Please see readShiraishiSignatures or the decompTumor2Sig vignette for more information on the format of Shiraishi signatures.
