Function to statistically compare correlation to prototypes

Description

This function performs a statistical comparison of the correlation coefficients as computed between each probe and prototype.

Usage

compareProtoCor(gene.cor, proto.cor, nn,
 p.adjust.m = c("none", "holm", "hochberg", "hommel", "bonferroni", "BH", "BY", "fdr"))

Arguments

gene.cor

Correlation coefficients between the probes and each of the prototypes.

proto.cor

Pairwise correlation coefficients of the prototypes.

nn

Number of samples used to compute the correlation coefficients between the probes and each of the prototypes.

p.adjust.m

Correction method as defined in p.adjust.

Value

Data frame with probes in rows and with three columns: "proto" is the prototype to which the probe is the most correlated, "cor" is the actual correlation, and "signif" is the (corrected) p-value for the superiority of the correlation to this prototype compared to the second highest correlation.

# load NKI dataset
