synth {epoc}R Documentation

Blinded cancer mRNA, CNA and survival data

Description

This dataset contains blinded mRNA, CNA and survival data of 186 cancer tumors modified for demonstration usage. Some genes are randomly selected from 10672 probes, others are chosen for their characteristics.

mRNA is standardized to sd=1 and mean=0. CNA is centered to mean=0. survival is in days.

Usage

data(synth)

Format

The synth data set is a list containing mRNA y, CNA u and surv survival data.

Examples

## Not run:   
  data(synth)
  y <- synth$y
  # standardize u
  u <- apply(synth$u, 2, function(x) x/sd(x))
  G <- epocG(Y=y, U=u)
  summary(G)
  plot(G)
