Arguments

arraydata a matrix, data.frame, exprSet or marrayRaw. If the input is gene expression data in a matrix or data.frame. The rows and columns are expected to contain the variables (genes) and cases (array samples) respectively.

Details

bga and other functions in made4 call this function and it is generally not necessary to call this directly.

array2ade4 calls getdata, and will accept a matrix,data.frame, exprSet or marrayRaw format. It will also transpose data or add a integer to generate a positive data matrix. If the input data contains NA, these must first be removed or imputed (see the R libraries impute() or pamr()). getdata is very similar to getIntensityMatrix in vsn.

Value
