Package 'SCBN'

Title: A statistical normalization method and differential expression analysis for RNA-seq data between different species
Description: This package provides a scale based normalization (SCBN) method to identify genes with differential expression between different species. It takes into account the available knowledge of conserved orthologous genes and the hypothesis testing framework to detect differentially expressed orthologous genes. The method on this package are described in the article 'A statistical normalization method and differential expression analysis for RNA-seq data between different species' by Yan Zhou, Jiadi Zhu, Tiejun Tong, Junhui Wang, Bingqing Lin, Jun Zhang (2018, pending publication).

Arguments

commonTags

foldDifference

The fold for fold expression genes.

Value

list(.) A list of output, "DATAN" represents the read counts for the first species, "DATAM" represents the read counts for the second species, "trueFactors" represents the true scaling factor for data, "group" represents the number of species, "libSizes" represents the library size for data, "differentialInd" represents the ID for differential expression genes, "commonInd" represents the ID for common expression genes.
