dot-smoothMonotone: Monotone smoothing of the VST counts

.smoothMonotoneR Documentation

Monotone smoothing of the VST counts

Description

Takes the variance stabilized count values and calculates a symmetric monotone fit for the distance dependency. The signal trend is fitted using the fda package.

Usage

.smoothMonotone(trafo_counts, alpha = 20, penalty = 0.1, frag_data)

Arguments

trafo_counts

Variance stabilized count values assay from DDS object.

alpha

Approximate number of fragments desired for every basis function of the B-spline basis. floor((max(number of fragments)) / alpha) is passed to create.bspline.basis as nbasis argument. 4 is the minimum allowed value. Default: 20.

penalty

Amount of smoothing to be applied to the estimated functional parameter. Default: 0.1.

frag_data

Data frame with all the information on restriction fragments and the interval around the viewpoint.

Details

This function computes the smoothing function for the VST values, based on fda package, and calculates a symmetric monotone fit counts for the distance dependency

Value

A dataframe with monotone smoothed fit counts.
