filter.genes: Filter gene expression based on gene counts

Description Usage Arguments Value Author(s) Examples

View source: R/metaseqr.filter.R

Description

This function performs the gene expression filtering based on gene read counts and a set of gene filter rules. For more details see the main help pages of metaseqr.

Usage

1
2
    filter.genes(gene.counts, gene.data, gene.filters,
    sample.list)

Arguments

gene.counts

a matrix of gene counts, preferably after the normalization procedure.

gene.data

an annotation data frame usually obtained with get.annotation containing the unique gene accession identifiers.

gene.filters

a named list with gene filters and their parameters. See the main help page of metaseqr for details.

sample.list

the list containing condition names and the samples under each condition.

Value

a named list with three members. The first member (result is a named list whose names are the gene filter names and its members are the filtered rownames of gene.data. The second member (cutoff is a named list whose names are the gene filter names and its members are the cutoff values corresponding to each filter. The third member is a matrix of binary flags (0 for non-filtered, 1 for filtered) for each gene. The rownames of the flag matrix correspond to gene ids.
