MAplot {affy}R Documentation

Relative M vs. A plots

Description

Create boxplots of M or M vs A plots. Where M is determined relative to a specified chip or to a pseudo-median reference chip.

Usage

MAplot(object,...)
Mbox(object,...)
ma.plot(A, M, subset = sample(1:length(M), min(c(10000, length(M)))),
show.statistics=TRUE, span=2/3, family.loess="gaussian", cex = 2,plot.method=c("normal","smoothScatter","add"),add.loess = TRUE,lwd = 1, lty = 1, loess.col = "red",...)

Arguments

object An AffyBatch-class
... Additional parameters for the routine
A A vector to plot along the horizonal axis
M A vector to plot along vertical axis
subset A set of indices to use when drawing the loess curve
show.statistics If true some summary statistics of the M values are drawn
span span to be used for loess fit.
family.loess "guassian" or "symmetric" as in loess.
cex Size of text when writing summary statistics on plot
plot.method a string specifying how the plot is to be drawn. "normal" plots points, "smoothScatter" uses the smoothScatter function. Specifying "add" means that the MAplot should be added to the current plot
add.loess add a loess line to the plot
lwd width of loess line
lty line type for loess line
loess.col color for loess line
