ruleOutliers: Showing or Modifying the Rule used to Identify Outliers

In flowClust: Clustering for Flow Cytometry

Description

This method shows or modifies the rule used to identify outliers.

Usage

ruleOutliers(object)

## S4 method for signature 'flowClust'
ruleOutliers(object)

## S4 method for signature 'flowClustList'
ruleOutliers(object)

ruleOutliers(object) <- value

## S4 replacement method for signature 'flowClust,list'
ruleOutliers(object) <- value

Arguments

object

Object returned from flowClust or filter.

value

A list object with one or more of the following named elements: level, u.cutoff and z.cutoff. Their interpretations are the same as those of the corresponding arguments in the flowClust function. Note that when both level and u.cutoff are missing, the rule set by the original value of level or u.cutoff will be unchanged rather than removed. Likewise, when z.cutoff is missing, the rule set by the original value of z.cutoff will be retained.

Value

The replacement method modifies object@ruleOutliers (or object[[k]]@ruleOutliers if object is of class flowClustList or tmixFilterResultList) AND updates the logical vector object@flagOutliers (or object[[k]]@ruleOutliers) according to the new rule.
