View source: R/model.nbs.m.R

Description

This function fits an NBS dispersion model where the dispersion is modeled as a smooth function (a natural cubic spline function) of the preliminary estimates of the log mean realtive frequencies. The output of this function will be passed to the main GOF function nb.gof.m.

Usage

1
model.nbs.m(counts, x, lib.sizes=colSums(counts), method=method)

Arguments

counts

an m-by-n count matrix of non-negative integers. For a typical RNA-Seq experiment, this is the read counts with m genes and n samples.

x

an n-by-p design matrix.

lib.sizes

library sizes of an RNA-Seq experiment. Default is the column sums of the counts matrix.

method

method for estimating dispersions.

Details

See the estimate.dispersion function in the NBPSeq package for more information.

Value

A list of quantities to be used in the main nb.gof.m function.
