coverage_filter: Filter matrices by coverage

In CompEpigen/methrix: Fast and efficient summarization of generic bedGraph files from Bisufite sequencing

Filter matrices by coverage

Description

Filter matrices by coverage

Usage

coverage_filter(
  m,
  cov_thr = 1,
  min_samples = 1,
  prop_samples = 0,
  group = NULL,
  n_chunks = 1,
  n_cores = 1
)

Arguments

m	methrix object
cov_thr	minimum coverage required to call a loci covered
min_samples	Minimum number of samples that should have a loci with coverage >= cov_thr. If group is given, then this applies per group. Only need one of prop_samples or min_samples.
prop_samples	Minimum proportion of samples that should have a loci with coverage >= cov_thr. If group is given, then this applies per group. Only need one of prop_samples or min_samples.
group	a column name from sample annotation that defines groups. In this case, the number of min_samples will be tested group-wise.
n_chunks	Number of chunks to split the methrix object in case it is very large. Default = 1.
n_cores	Number of parallel instances. n_cores should be less than or equal to n_chunks. If n_chunks is not specified, then n_chunks is initialized to be equal to n_cores. Default = 1.

Details

Takes methrix object and filters CpGs based on coverage statistics

Value

An object of class methrix

Examples

data('methrix_data')
#keep only CpGs which are covered by at-least 1 read across 3 samples
coverage_filter(m = methrix_data, cov_thr = 1, min_samples = 3)
