Description

Find the false discovery rate for each gene in each cell-type.

Usage

1
  findSigGene(G, cc, y, rhat, csSAMData)

Arguments

G

Gene expression matrix of heterogenous tissue measurements

cc

Matrix of cell-frequency measures per person

y

Numeric group association of each sample. Either 1 or 2.

rhat

Matrix of cell-specific contrasts for each gene in each cell-type as computed for the original group classification.

csSAMData

List object returned from fdrCsSAM.

Value

A matrix size k by g where k is the number of cell-types and g is the number of genes. For each cell in the matirx, listed is the FDR of the gene for a difference in a given cell-type.
