squareroot-class: Class "squareroot"

In flowCore: flowCore: Basic structures for flow cytometry data

Description

Square root transform class, which represents a transformation defined by the function

f(parameter,a)= √{ |{\frac{parameter}{a}|}}

Slots

.Data

Object of class "function"

a

Object of class "numeric" – non-zero multiplicative constant

parameters

Object of class "transformation" – flow parameter to be transformed.

transformationId

Object of class "character" – unique ID to reference the transformation.

Objects from the Class

Objects can be created by calls to the constructor squareroot(parameters,a,transformationId)

Extends

Class "singleParameterTransform", directly.

Class "transform", by class "singleParameterTransform", distance 2.

Class "transformation", by class "singleParameterTransform", distance 3.

Class "characterOrTransformation", by class "singleParameterTransform", distance 4.

Note

The squareroot transformation object can be evaluated using the eval method by passing the data frame as an argument.The transformed parameters are returned as a column vector. (See example below)
