## Calculate normalized betas from Illumina 450K methylation arrays

### Description

Multiple ways of calculating the index of methylation (beta) from methylated and unmethylated probe intensities used in Pidsley et al 2012.

### Arguments

`mn, mns` | matrix of methylated signal intensities, each column representing a sample (default method), or an object for which a method is available. Column names are used to get Sentrix row and column by default, see '...'.
`un, uns` | matrix of unmethylated signal intensities, each column representing a sample (default method) or NULL when mn is an object containing methylated and unmethylated values
`bn, data` | matrix of precalculated betas, each column representing a sample
`onetwo` | character vector or factor of length nrow(mn) indicating assay type 'I' or 'II'
`da, anno` | annotation data frame, such as x@featureData@data #methylumi package
`qc` | control probe intensities: list of 2 matrices, Cy3 and Cy5, with rownames, such as produced by intensitiesByChannel(QCdata(x)) #methylumi package
`fudge` | value added to total intensity to prevent denominators close to zero when calculating betas
`...` | additional argument roco for dfsfit giving Sentrix rows and columns. This allows a background gradient model to be fit. This is split from data column names by default. roco=NULL disables model fitting (and speeds up processing), otherwise roco can be supplied as a character vector of strings like 'R01C01' (only 3rd and 6th characters used).

### Details

dasen same as nasen but type I and type II backgrounds are normalized first. This is our recommended method

betaqn quantile normalizes betas

naten quantile normalizes methylated and unmethylated intensities separately, then calculates betas

nanet quantile normalizes methylated and unmethylated intensities together, then calculates betas. This should equalize dye bias.

nanes quantile normalizes methylated and unmethylated intensities separately, except for type II probes where methylated and unmethylated are normalized together. This should equalize dye bias without affecting type I probes which are not susceptible.

danes same as nanes, except typeI and type II background are equalised first.

danet same as nanet, except typeI and type II background are equalised first.

danen background equalisation only, no normalization

daten1 same as naten, except typeI and type II background are equalised first (smoothed only for methylated)

daten2 same as naten, except typeI and type II background are equalised first (smoothed for methylated an unmethylated)

nasen same as naten but typeI and typeII intensities quantile normalized separately

tost method from Touleimat and Tost 2011

fuks method from Dedeurwaerder et al 2011. Peak correction only, no normalization

swan method from Maksimovic et al 2012

### Value

a matrix of betas is returned by the MethySet and RGChannelSet methods because they do not have a defined slot for betas.

### methods
