In dami82/mutSignatures: Decipher Mutational Signatures from Somatic Mutational Catalogs

Run a Preliminary Process Assess analysis.

Description

This function is an attempt to analyze the relationship between error and k. In other words, the goal of prelimProcessAssess is to visualize the reduction in the error/residuals

Usage

prelimProcessAssess(
  input,
  maxProcess = 6,
  approach = "counts",
  plot = TRUE,
  verbose = TRUE
)

Arguments

input	a mutationCounts-class object
maxProcess	integer, maximum k to test
approach	sting, "counts" or "freq"
plot	logical, shall a plot be printed to the active device
verbose	logical, info about the ongoing analysis be messaged/printed to console

Details

This function is part of the user-interface set of tools included in mutSignatures. This is an exported function.

Value

a data.frame showing the estimated total error with respect to the range of k values
