colMedians,DelayedMatrix-methodR Documentation

Calculates the median for each row (column) of a matrix-like object

Description

Calculates the median for each row (column) of a matrix-like object.

Usage

## S4 method for signature 'DelayedMatrix'
colMedians(
  x,
  rows = NULL,
  cols = NULL,
  na.rm = FALSE,
  force_block_processing = FALSE,
  ...,
  useNames = TRUE
)

## S4 method for signature 'DelayedMatrix'
rowMedians(
  x,
  rows = NULL,
  cols = NULL,
  na.rm = FALSE,
  force_block_processing = FALSE,
  ...,
  useNames = TRUE
)

Arguments

x

A NxK DelayedMatrix.

rows, cols

A vector indicating the subset of rows (and/or columns) to operate over. If NULL, no subsetting is done.

na.rm

If TRUE, missing values (NA or NaN) are omitted from the calculations.

force_block_processing

FALSE (the default) means that a seed-aware, optimised method is used (if available). This can be overridden to use the general block-processing strategy by setting this to TRUE (typically not advised). The block-processing strategy loads one or more (depending on ⁠\link[DelayedArray]{getAutoBlockSize}()⁠) columns (colFoo()) or rows (rowFoo()) into memory as an ordinary base::array.

...

Additional arguments passed to specific methods.

useNames

If TRUE (default), names attributes of result are set. Else if FALSE, no naming support is done.

Details

The S4 methods for x of type matrix, array, table, or numeric call matrixStats::rowMedians / matrixStats::colMedians.

Value

Returns a numeric vector of length N (K).

Examples

# A DelayedMatrix with a 'Matrix' seed
dm_Matrix <- DelayedArray(Matrix::Matrix(c(rep(1L, 5),
                                           as.integer((0:4) ^ 2),
                                           seq(-5L, -1L, 1L)),
                                         ncol = 3))
