Apply variancePartition's dream to one or more contrasts, perform moderated F-test, and return a table using limma's topTable

Description

Apply variancePartition's dream, to one or more contrasts, perform perform moderated F-test, and return a table using limma's topTable.

Usage

dream_ftest_contrasts(
  object,
  formula,
  pheno,
  contrast.v,
  weights = NA,
  grp = NULL,
  add.means = !is.null(grp),
  moderated = TRUE,
  prefix = ""
)

Arguments

object	Matrix-like data object containing log-ratios or log-expression values, with rows corresponding to features (e.g. genes) and columns to samples. Must have row names that are non-duplicated and non-empty.
formula	specifies variables for the linear (mixed) model. Must only specify covariates, since the rows of exprObj are automatically used as a response. e.g.: ~ a + b + (1|c) Formulas with only fixed effects also work, and lmFit() followed by contrasts.fit() are run.
pheno	data.frame with columns corresponding to formula
contrast.v	Named vector of contrasts, passed to makeContrasts.
weights	Non-negative observation weights. Can be a numeric matrix of individual weights of same size as the object, or a numeric vector of sample weights with length ncol(object), or a numeric vector of gene weights with length equal to nrow(object). Set to NULL to ignore object$weights. weights=NA (with length one) doesn't pass weights to limma.
grp	Vector of sample groups. These must be valid variable names in R and the same length as ncol(object).
add.means	Logical indicating if (unweighted) group means per row should be added to the output.
moderated	Logical; should variancePartition::eBayes be used?
prefix	Character string to add to beginning of column names. NULL does not add a prefix.

Value

Data frame.
