Setter Method for the lambdaPWM slot in a parameterOptions object

Description

Setter Method for the lambdaPWM slot in a parameterOptions object

Usage

lambdaPWM(object)<-value

Arguments

object

object is parameterOptions object

value

value is the numeric value to be assigned to the lambdaPWM slot. Default set at 1.

Details

The model underlying ChIPanalyser internally infers two paramters: number of bound molecules and lambda. Lambda represents a scaling factor for the Position weight matrix (PWM). This can be described as how well does a TF discriminate between high affinity and very high affinity sites.

Value

Returns the value assigned to the lambdaPWM slot in a parameterOptions object.
