nhppRateEstimate {seqCBS} | R Documentation |
Given a vector of point events, give a rough estimate of the rate of underlying non-homogeneous Poisson process by window and smoothing
nhppRateEstimate(controls, length.out = floor(length(controls)/20), lowessF = 0.1)
controls |
A vector of point locations (read positions) of a control sample for which the rate is wanted |
length.out |
The number of windows to be used for the rate estimate vector; default to be number of observations/100 |
lowessF |
Smoothing factor for the lowess smoothing of the windowed rates, describes the proportion of windows around a particular window that has influence on its smoothed rate estimate |
This is used to give a realistic estimate of the rate nhpp of control samples
Returns a vector of length length.out
that contains the smoothed rate estimate of each window
