loadCopyNumberCalls {CopyNumberPlots} | R Documentation |
Loads copy number calls from a tabular format
loadCopyNumberCalls(cnv.data, chr.col = NULL, start.col = NULL, end.col = NULL, cn.col = NULL, loh.col = NULL, segment.value.col = NULL, genome = NULL, verbose = TRUE)
cnv.data |
Either the name of the file with the data or a variable containing the data |
chr.col |
(number or character) The name or number of the column with chromosome information. If NULL, it is automatically identified. (defaults to NULL) |
start.col |
(number or character) The name or number of the column with start position information. If NULL, it is automatically identified. (defaults to NULL) |
end.col |
(number or character) The name or number of the column with end position information. If NULL, it is automatically identified. (defaults to NULL) |
cn.col |
(number or character) The name or number of the column with CN information. If NULL, it is automatically identified. (defaults to NULL) |
loh.col |
(number or character) The name or number of the column with LOH information. If NULL, it is automatically identified. (defaults to NULL) |
segment.value.col |
(number or character) The name or number of the column with segment value. If NULL, it is automatically identified. (defaults to NULL) |
genome |
(character) The name of the genome (defaults to NULL) |
verbose |
(logical) Whether to show information messages. (defaults to TRUE) |
This function will load segments data from any "bed-like" data structure
in R or file. Internally it uses the toGRanges
function from regioneR
package and can work with any format accepted by it, including R objects
and local or remote files.
If no column names are specified, it will use simple heuristics to try to
identify the relevant data columns.
A GRanges with a range per copy number segment
