get_gene_length: This function estimates the transcripts length.

In mqzhanglab/wHC: Goodness of fit Statistics Calculation based on weighted p-values

This function estimates the transcripts length.

Description

The data resources comes from the ensembl genome browser (useast.ensembl.org/index.html).

Usage

get_gene_length(gene_label = "symbols", comb = "mean")

Arguments

gene_label	is the returning gene labels, it can be "ensembl_gene_id" or "symbols"
comb	is the estimation method based on multiple records of transcription lengths. It can be "median","mean","max","min", which calculate the median, mean,max and min of genes or do nothing on them.

Value

the numeric vector representing prior information for each single gene's length
