#' @description
#' This object is a matrix of dimensions 1500 by 12 consisting of the average
#' DNA methylation values fo the probes included in the IDOL optimized
#' CpGs per each of the twelve cell types available to use in the 450K
#' platform. These CpGs are used as the backbone for deconvolution and
#' were selected because their methylation signature differs across the
#' twelve normal leukocyte subtypes.
#'
#' Researchers who want to project directly their estimates with 450k data can
#' use this matrix of different cellular populations ( neutrophils (Neu),
#' eosinophils (Eos), basophils (Bas), monocytes (Mono),B lymphocytes naive
#' (Bnv), B lymphocytes memory (Bmem), T helper lymphocytes naive (CD4nv),
#' T helper lymphocytes memory (CD4mem), T regulatory cells (Treg),
#' T cytotoxic lymphocytes naive (CD8nv), T cytotoxic lymphocytes memory
#' (CD8mem), and natural killer lymphocytes (NK)).
