Correlation

Correlation

Usage

correlation(x, y, ...)

# S4 method for DESeqResults,DESeqResults
correlation(
  x,
  y,
  col = "log2FoldChange",
  method = c("pearson", "kendall", "spearman")
)

# S4 method for DESeqAnalysis,missingOrNULL
correlation(
  x,
  y = NULL,
  i,
  j,
  col = "log2FoldChange",
  method = c("pearson", "kendall", "spearman")
)

Arguments

x

Object.

y

Object.

col

character(1). Column name.

method

character(1). Which correlation coefficient (or covariance) is to be computed. See stats::cor documentation for details.

i

integer(1) or character(1). For SummarizedExperiment, primary assay.

j

integer(1), character(1), or NULL. For SummarizedExperiment, optional secondary assay. If NULL, calculates correlation matrix only on the primary assay.

...

Additional arguments.
