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

Remove Mutation Types Not Meeting the Threshold.

Description

Remove mutation types that account for a total number of mutations below a defined threshold.

Usage

removeWeak(input_mutCounts, params)

Arguments

input_mutCounts	numeric matrix of Mutation Counts
params	object (list) including all parameters required for running the analysis

Details

This is one of the core functions included in the original mutSignatures R library, and in the WTSI MATLAB framework. This is an internal function.
