FixedExpressionData: An S4 class to store classifier parameters.

In rkuiper/geneClassifiers: Application of gene classifiers

Description

This class stores gene expression data together with information on the normalization method and additional normalization related parameters. In order to ensure the data is not manipulated in unforeseen ways, manipulation is strictly controled through adding transformations which are predefined in the TransformationProcess-class. Upon reading the data by the exprs function, the transformations areperformed in the order the were added.

Slots

normalizationMethod

A character string indicating the normalization method that was applied to the data. Possible values are give by getNormalizationMethods.

expressionEnvironment

A locked environment in which the expression matrix is stored.

normalizationParameters

A list with normalization specific values.

transformationProcess

A locked environment to which the transformation processes are added.

.geneClassifierVersion

An object of class package_version
