exp_findPatterns {explorase} | R Documentation

## Find Patterns

### Description

Finds patterns in data. Transitions within range of 'fraction' (centered on median) are considered flat (unchanging). Those below are falling and those above are rising.

### Usage

    exp_findPatterns(data, flat_fraction)

### Arguments

`data` | A data frame of experimental data according to exploRase conventions.
`flat_fraction` | The fraction of transitions considered unchanged, centered on median.

### Value

a data frame, with a row for each gene. The first column is the sum of `x^i` over all `i` from 1 to `ncol(data)-1`, where `x` is 1, 2, or 3, depending on whether the pattern is up, same, or down, respectively, for transition `i`. The second column contains the magnitude of the pattern.
