[R] Fisher exact test?

2010-10-04 Thread James Nead
Hi All, My apologies if this is a totally newbie question. I want to calculate the probability that a particular set of genes is picked repeatedly for 3 samplings. For example, if from a total of 'N' genes, I pick 'A' number of genes in the first pick, 'B' number of genes in the second pick,

Hi Thomas, Thanks for the reply. 1. In the first pick, I draw 'A' genes from N, without replacement. 2. Similarly, in the second pick, I draw 'B' genes from N, without replacement (and 'C' genes from 'N' etc.) 3. Order does not matter - so the two cases you cited are equivalent. I would like

Hi, I looked at the help documentation, but couldn't find the algorithm for calculating the modified jaccard index for separate sets of biclusters. Is there a link to some documentation on this? many thanks! [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

[R] Linear models (lme4) - basic question

2010-09-02 Thread James Nead
Hi, Sorry for a basic questions on linear models. I am trying to adjust raw data for both fixed and mixed effects. The data that I output should account for these effects, so that I can use the adjusted data for further analysis. For example, if I have the blood sugar levels for 30

Hi Bert, Thanks for the reply. Height, was just as an example. Perhaps, I should have said 'x' instead of height. Essentially, what I want to do is adjust the data for known effects. After I've done this, I can conduct further analysis on the data (for example, if another variable 'z' has an

Sorry, forgot to mention that the processed data will be used as input for a classification algorithm. So, I need to adjust for known effects before I can use the data. thanks From: Bert Gunter gunter.ber...@gene.com Cc: r-help@r-project.org Sent: Thu,

Hi, I wanted to compare the quality of biclusters obtained from the various biclustering algorithms. Is there a function/metric in biclust (or some other package) that will enable me to do this? thanks! [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
