Description Usage Arguments Details Value See Also Examples
Maps a numeric variable to a 0-1 scale such that values at the ends of the distribution are desirable.
1 |
x |
Vector of numeric or integer values. |
cut1, cut2, cut3, cut4 |
Values of the original data that define where the desirability function changes. |
des.min, des.max |
Minimum and maximum desirability values. Defaults to zero and one, respectively. |
scale |
Controls how steeply the function increases or decreases. |
Values less than cut1
and greater than cut4
will have
a high desirability. Values between cut2
and cut3
will have a
low desirability. Values between cut1
and cut2
and between
cut3
and cut4
will have intermediate values. This function is
useful when the data represent differences between groups; for example, log2
fold-changes in gene expression. In this case, both high an low values are of
interest.
Numeric vector of desirability values.
