Description

Selects the Least Variant Set of genes, accordingly to the chosen proportion of genes expected not to vary between arrays.

Usage

1
lvs.fit(object, proportion = 0.6, DF=10,...)

Arguments

object

an object of class RA or a matrix with residual standard errors and array effects.

proportion

the proportion below which genes are expected not to vary between samples. Default is set to 0.6.

DF

the degrees of freedom used for the bi-spline in the quantile regression.

...

...

Value
