FDRsupp-class: Class '"FDRsupp"'

In gQTLstats: gQTLstats: computationally efficient analysis for eQTL and allied studies

Description

Support for FDR computations with ciseStore instances

Objects from the Class

Objects can be created by calls of the form new("FDRsupp", ...).

Slots

tab:

Object of class "data.frame" a table with association scores and plug-in FDR estimates evaluated on selected score values

FDRfunc:

Object of class "function" a function of one argument with input association score and output the corresponding FDR estimate

FDRmodel:

Object of class "gam" that was fit to elements of tab

filterUsed:

Object of class "function" a copy of the function used for filtering the store to create the FDRfunc element.

sessinfo:

sessionInfo() value at time of construction

theCall:

instance of class "call" showing call leading to construction

Methods

getFDRfunc

signature(x = "FDRsupp"): extract the FDR approximating function, a function of one (vector) argument assumed to represent association scores, evaluating to the plug-in FDR estimates corresponding to these scores

getTab

signature(x = "FDRsupp"): extract the table of association scores and empirical FDR estimates

Note

Typically the FDRfunc function is constructed using a smooth model relating the estimated FDR to association scores.

Examples
