get_log_p_D_KL_continuous {singleCellHaystack}

Estimates the significance of the observed Kullback-Leibler divergence by comparing to randomizations for the continuous version of haystack.

Description

Estimates the significance of the observed Kullback-Leibler divergence by comparing to randomizations for the continuous version of haystack.

Usage

get_log_p_D_KL_continuous(
  D_KL.observed,
  D_KL.randomized,
  all.coeffVar,
  train.coeffVar,
  output.dir = NULL,
  spline.method = "ns"
)

Arguments

D_KL.observed

A vector of observed Kullback-Leibler divergences.

D_KL.randomized

A matrix of Kullback-Leibler divergences of randomized datasets.

all.coeffVar

Coefficients of variation of all genes. Used for fitting the Kullback-Leibler divergences.

train.coeffVar

Coefficients of variation of genes that will be used for fitting the Kullback-Leibler divergences.

output.dir

Optional parameter. Default is NULL. If not NULL, some files will be written to this directory.

spline.method

Method to use for fitting splines "ns" (default): natural splines, "bs": B-splines.

Value

A vector of log10 p values, not corrected for multiple testing using the Bonferroni correction.
