normalise: Base function of normalisation

In mQTL.NMR: Metabolomic Quantitative Trait Locus Mapping for 1H NMR data

Description

Removing dilutions between biofluid samples (normalisation of spectra)

Usage

normalise(X, method,refIdx,noiseInt)

Arguments

X	A matrix specifying metabolomic data
method	A character defining the normalization method. Constant sum normalisation (method<-'CS'), Constant noise normalisation (method<-'CN'), Quotient probabilistic method (method<-'PQN'), Linear baseline normalisation (method<-'LBN'), Auto scaling (method<-'AS'), Pareto scaling (method<-'PS').
refIdx	index of reference individual (set by the user if necessary)
noiseInt	noise region on the resonance axis as an interval (ex. [11,12] ppm)

Value

A matrix defining normalised spectrum
