fit_models: Linear regression of the null and full models

Description Usage Arguments Details Value Note Author(s) References See Also Examples

Description

fit_models fits a model matrix to each gene by using the least squares method. Model fits can be either statistic type "odp" (optimal discovery procedure) or "lrt" (likelihood ratio test).

fit_models(object, stat.type = c("lrt", "odp"), weights = NULL)

## S4 method for signature 'deSet'
fit_models(object, stat.type = c("lrt", "odp"),
  weights = NULL)

Arguments

object

S4 object: deSet.

stat.type

character: type of statistic to be used. Either "lrt" or "odp". Default is "lrt".

weights

matrix: weights for each observation. Default is NULL.

Details

If "odp" method is implemented then the null model is removed from the full model (see Storey 2007). Otherwise, the statistic type has no affect on the model fit.

Value

deFit object

Note

fit_models does not have to be called by the user to use odp, lrt or kl_clust as it is an optional input and is implemented in the methods. The deFit object can be created by the user if a different statistical implementation is required.
