Description Usage Arguments Value

Description

A function to calculate the P values for each gene as compared with either 0, the gene set mean, or the full PDF of the gene set.

Usage

3
absoluteTest.genePvals(QSarray, path.index = 1:numPathways(QSarray),
  silent = TRUE, FastApproximated = TRUE, addVIF = !is.null(QSarray$vif),
  NPoints = QSarray$n.points/8, compareTo = c("zero", "mean", "pdf"))

Arguments

QSarray

A QSarray object, as generated by aggregateGeneSet and possibly modified by calcVIF

path.index

The pathways to calculate the pVals for.

silent

If false, print a "." every fifth pathway, as a way to keep track of progress

FastApproximated

fast mode which uses normal approximations for the PDF's

addVIF

Whether to include the VIF in the calculation of the p-values. By default, if the VIF has been calculated, it will be used

NPoints

points to use

compareTo

the null hypothesis that each gene set is tested against.

Value

gene set associated P values
