Description

This function filters the expression of the supplied object, by invoking the dafsFilter (dafs) function. dafsFilter is a filtering function used to remove rows (genes) of various expression data.

Usage

1

Arguments

se

A SummarizedExperiment object.

PLOT

Boolean, toggles plotting.

Details

This function filters the expression of the supplied object using a Data Adaptive Flag filter. The internal function uses a vector to store Kolmogorov Smirnov distance statistics, loops through cuts of the data to determine targeted K-S statistic, selects data greater than a quantile and runs Mclust on that data to determine theoretical distribution. The wrapper uses simpleFilter to determine first left-most local minima (using the Earth library).

Value

Returns an invisible, filtered SummExp object.
