preprocessDataset: Preprocess Dataset

In ctlab/LinSeed: Linear Subpsace identification to solve complete gene expression deconvolution problem

Description

Preprocesses given dataset. Preprocessing consists of 3 major steps: 1) If needed, probes corresponding to the same genes are collapsed, only most expressed probe is taken for further analysis. It's common technique in microarray data analysis. 2) If needed, only highly expressed genes are taken for further analysis. (Say hello to noize reduction) 3) All genes are clustered with Kmeans using cosine simillarity as distance.

Usage

preprocessDataset(dataset, annotation = NULL,
  geneSymbol = "Gene symbol", samples = NULL, topGenes = 10000)

Arguments

dataset	matrix, data.frame, path to file or GSE accession with expression data
annotation	dataframe, matrix, named vector with annotation to probes
geneSymbol	column from annotation to collapse the genes, deafult value is 'Gene Symbol'
samples	character vector of samples. If column were not in samples, it would be excluded from analysis. Default value is NULL, which takes every sample from dataset
topGenes	integer How many genes include in analysis. We suppose to include only expressed genes. Default value is 10000

Value

clustered dataset, matrix, first column identifies cluster of the row
