In DarwinAwardWinner/rctutils: Utility functions by Ryan C. Thompson

Estimate edgeR dispersions separately for each group

Description

This takes a DGEList and a grouping factor and estimates the dispersion

Usage

estimateDispByGroup(
  dge,
  group = as.factor(dge$samples$group),
  batch,
  ...,
  BPPARAM = BiocParallel::bpparam()
)

Arguments

dge	A DGEList object.
group	A factor to use in spliting the samples in dge into groups.
batch	A vector or list of multiple vectors to be treated as batch effects when estimating dispersions.
...	Additional arguments are passed to edgeR::estimateDisp().
BPPARAM	A BiocParallelParam instance to be used for parallelization.

Value

A named list with one DGEList for each group. Each DGEList contains the samples and estimated dispersions for that group.
