normScatterPlot: Create MELON scatter plots

In MELON: Methylation Enriched LOci Normalization (MELON) for genome-wide DNA methylation experiments

Description

Method to construct MELON scatter plots of normalized samples vs the reference sample

Usage

normScatterPlot(object, nres = 5, datatype = c("Count", "Continuous"), savedir = NULL, plotabline = T, tracefile = NULL)

Arguments

object	object of class MELON
nres	percentage, default value is 5%
datatype	scale of normalized data, either Count (log) or Continuous
savedir	the directory where to save the plots
plotabline	logical indicating whether bisector should be shown. Default is TRUE.
tracefile	a writable connection or a character string naming the file to write to, or NULL to stop sink-ing.

Details

A technical description of the algorithm and performance is given in the article 'Methylation Enriched LOci Normalization (MELON) for genome-wide DNA methylation experiments' (De Meyer et al. 2012).

Value

The method provides MELON scatter plots of normalized samples vs the reference sample. The sample names are embedded in the file names.
