K-caller (Training Set; EUR, Illumina Infinium HumanMethylation450 Beadchip microarray)

Description

Includes a list 4 vectors of 450K cg id's:

  • K = 1

  • K = 2

  • K = 3

  • K = 4

These correspond to probes that form from 1 to 4 clusters in the U/M plane on a dataset of 426 MZ twin pairs of the E-risk cohort (British, EUR ancestry). These sets were compiled by manually examining U/M plots of random probes. However, the number of clusters observed may be different in other datasets. Key parameters that will determine if this is true will be sample size or ancestry. If one manually verifies that these lists apply to their own dataset, they can be used for calibrating parameters eps and minPts from the K-caller.
