Description Usage Arguments Slots See Also Examples

Description

The maximum a posteriori estimate of the trio copy number state for each genomic range is represented in a GRanges-derived class. Ultimately, these ranges will be filtered based on the trio copy number state (e.g., denovo deletions), size, number of features (SNPs), or chromosome. FilterParam is a container for the parameters commmonly used to filter the genomic ranges.

Arguments

probability

minumum probability for the call

numberFeatures

minumum number of SNPs/nonpolymorphic features in a region

seqnames

the seqnames (character string or Rle to keep)

state

character: the HMM states to keep

width

the minimum widht of a region

object

a FilterParam object

Slots

probability

a length-one numeric vector indicating the minimum posterior probability for the called state. Genomic intervals with posterior probabilities below probability will be filtered.

numberFeatures

a positive integer indicating the minimum number of features in a segment

seqnames

a character vector of seqnames to select (i.e., 'chr1' for only those intervals on chromosome 1)

width

positive integer indicating the minimal width of genomic intervals

state

character string indicating which hidden Markov model states to select

## To select CNV segments for which
## - the CNV call has a 'posterior' probability of at least 0.95
## - the number of features is at least 10
## - the HMM states are 1 (homozygous deletion) or 2 (hemizygous deletion)
FilterParam(probability=0.95, numberFeatures=10, state=c("1", "2"))
