gene expression data

Description Usage Arguments

This is a suggested scoring function that collapses two informative numbers, a fold change conveying effect size and a z-score conveying significance, into a single number in a fixed range [-1, 1]

1	E3DEscore(fc, z, fc.thresh = c(1.25, 1.75), z.thresh = c(1.25, 1.75))

`fc`	numeric. Values of fold change (e.g. 2 for 2-fold up-regualtion, 0.25 for 4-fold down-regulation).
`z`	numeric. Values of z-score
`fc.thresh`	numeric vector of length two. Should hold lower and upper thresholds for interesting fold-changes. Values of fc below lower threshold will receive score 0. Values above upper threshold will receive score 1. Intermediate values follow linear interpolation.
`z.thresh`	numeric vector of length two. Analogous to fc.thresh, but here thresholds applied to z score.
