| Spot-class {genArise} | R Documentation |
A simple list-based class for storing red and green channel foreground and background intensities for a batch of spotted microarrays and the Ids.
Objects can be created by calls of the form new("Spot",spot) where spot is a list.
Objects are normally created by read.spot.
This class contains no slots (other than .Data), but objects should contain the following list components:
Cy5: | numeric matrix containing the red (cy5) foreground intensities. Rows correspond to spots and columns to arrays. |
Cy3: | numeric matrix containing the green (cy3) foreground intensities. |
BgCy5: | numeric matrix containing the red (cy5) background intensities. |
BgCy3: | numeric matrix containing the green background intensities. |
Id: | Ids from all the observations. |
All of these matrices should have the same dimensions.
This class inherits directly from class list so any operation appropriate for lists will work on objects of this class.
