Usage

estimateSex(betas, do_plot = FALSE)

Arguments

betas

A matrix with sample IDs as column names, and probe names as row names, ideally: beta = M / (M + U + 100). Take a look at an example betas with: "data(melon); print(betas(melon)[1:10, 1:3])".

do_plot

logical. Should plot the predicted results? Default: FALSE

Value
