excludeOutliers: Exclude Outliers from Melted Assay Dataframe

In rADA: Statistical Analysis and Cut-Point Determination of Immunoassays

Description

This function excludes outliers from the assay dataframe based on grDevices::boxplot.stats(). This outlier removal method is based on Tukey's test where outliers are removed if outside the established interquartile range.

Usage

excludeOutliers(
  assay.df.melted,
  data.transf = FALSE,
  transf.method = c("log10", "ln")
)

Arguments

assay.df.melted	A data.frame produced by assayMelt()
data.transf	Should the data should be transformed before normality is evaluated
transf.method	If data.transf is TRUE, which method should be used. Can choose between 'log10' and 'ln'.

Value

A melted data.frame
