Package 'plier'

Title: Implements the Affymetrix PLIER algorithm
Description: The PLIER (Probe Logarithmic Error Intensity Estimate) method produces an improved signal by accounting for experimentally observed patterns in probe behavior and handling error at the appropriately at low and high signal values.

Implements the PLIER algorithm

Description

Provides a wrapper around Affymetrix's API to provide an implementation of the PLIER alogrimth

Usage

justPlier(eset=ReadAffy(),replicate=1:length(eset),get.affinities=FALSE,normalize=FALSE,norm.type="together",augmentation=0.1,defaultaffinity=1.0,defaultconcentration=1.0,attenuation=0.005,seaconvergence=0.000001,seaiteration=3000,gmcutoff=0.15,probepenalty=0.001,concpenalty=0.000001,usemm=TRUE,usemodel=FALSE,fitaffinity=TRUE,plierconvergence=0.000001,plieriteration=3000,dropmax=3.0,lambdalimit=0.01,optimization=0)

Arguments

eset

An AffyBatch object containing the raw data

replicate

A factor containing the replicate structure to use for grouping samples

get.affinities

If TRUE, then return affinities in the description@preprocessing slot of the ExpressionSet object

normalize

If TRUE then apply quantile normalization to the probes before generating expression calls
