throat.parameter: Dirichlet parameters used for generating the artificial data...

In StructFDR: False Discovery Control Procedure Integrating the Prior Structure Information

Description

These parameters were derived based on a microbiome data set for studying the effect of smoking on the upper respiratory tract microbiome. The left throat microbiome was used to estimate the relative proportions of 778 most abundant OTUs. The dispersion parameter was selected to achieve medium level of zeroinflation (around 50% zeros).

Usage

data(throat.parameter)

Format

The format is: chr "throat.parameter"

Details

A list containing the proportion vector (throat.p.est) and the dispersion (throat.theta).
