## S4 method for signature 'RepeatEpigenomeCollection'
filterRepRefMeth(.Object,
  minReads = getConfigElement("plotRepTree.meth.minReads"),
  minCpGs = getConfigElement("plotRepTree.meth.minCpGs"),
  minCpGcov = getConfigElement("meth.minCpGcov"),
  covgType = "numReads")

Arguments

.Object

RepeatEpigenomeCollection object

minReads

threshold for the minimum number of reads required to cover a repeat

minCpGs

threshold for the minimum number of CpGs that must be contained in a repeat

minCpGcov

threshold specifying that mininum number of reads that must cover at least one CpG in the repeat in order for it to be retained

covgType

type of read coverage to be applied (important for filtering via minReads). See getRepeatCovg,RepeatEpigenomeCollection-method for possible values.

Details

A repeat must fulfill the criteria in all samples in order to be retained

Value

modified RepeatEpigenomeCollection object
