Description Usage Arguments Value Author(s) Examples

View source: R/corr_bestlag.R

Description

This function computes correlation based on best picked lags. The lags indicate delayed changes.

Usage

1
2
corr.bestlag(data, timepoints, max.lag = NULL, C = NULL,
  penalty = "high", iter = 10)

Arguments

data

a matrix or data frame with rows representing genes and columns representing different timepoints. If data is a data frame, the gene names can be specified using the row.names().

timepoints

a vector of time points used in the dataset

max.lag

a integer value of the maximum lags allowed in the dataset, if null, defaults to the floor of the number of timepoints divided by 4

C

a numeric value of C used in computing weighted correlation, if null, a default is computed based on the penalty argument

penalty

a factor with two levels high and low penalty on the weighted correlation

iter

an integer indicating the number of C values to test for low penalty

Value

a list containing weighted correlation and best lags used in each row
