alteredExpression-package {alteredExpression} | R Documentation |
Package that searches for the genes which present the most significant alteration in their expression profiles, by comparing disease samples (i.e. the altered state) with control or healthy samples (i.e. the control state). The algorithm provides groups of genes and assigns a statistical measure of significance to each group. Adequate performance of the method is achieved when the algorithm that finds deregulation is applied to differentially expressed genes previously selected
