plageParam-classR Documentation

plageParam class

Description

Method-specific parameters for the PLAGE method.

Objects of class plageParam contain the parameters for running the PLAGE method.

Usage

plageParam(
  exprData,
  geneSets,
  assay = NA_character_,
  annotation = NA_character_,
  minSize = 1,
  maxSize = Inf
)

Arguments

exprData

The expression data. Must be one of the classes supported by GsvaExprData. Type help(GsvaExprData) to consult the available classes.

geneSets

The gene sets. Must be one of the classes supported by GsvaGeneSets.

assay

The name of the assay to use in case exprData is a multi-assay container, otherwise ignored. By default, the first assay is used.

annotation

The name of a Bioconductor annotation package for the gene identifiers occurring in the row names of the expression data matrix. This can be used to map gene identifiers occurring in the gene sets if those are provided in a GeneSetCollection. By default gene identifiers used in expression data matrix and gene sets are matched directly.

minSize

Minimum size of the resulting gene sets after gene identifier mapping. By default, the minimum size is 1.

maxSize

Maximum size of the resulting gene sets after gene identifier mapping. By default, the maximum size is Inf.

Details

Since this method does not take any method-specific parameters, the parameter class does not add any slots to the common slots inherited from GsvaMethodParam.

PLAGE does not take any method-specific parameters in addition to an expression data set and a collection of gene sets.

Value

A new plageParam object.
