calculateMembershipFunctions {DFP} | R Documentation |
Calculates the Membership Functions. These functions are used in the next step (discretizeExpressionValues
) to discretize gene expression data.
calculateMembershipFunctions(rmadataset, skipFactor = 3)
rmadataset |
ExpressionSet with numeric values containing gene expression values (rows) of samples belonging to different categories (columns).The ExpressionSet also contains an AnnotatedDataFrame with metadata regarding the classes to which each sample belongs. |
skipFactor |
Numeric value to omit odd values (a way of normalization). Higher values imply that less samples of a gene are considered as odd. If skipFactor=0 do NOT skip.Default value = 3 . Range[0,) . |
Membership functions to determine the discret value (linguistic label) corresponding to a given gene expression level.
