     This function implements the interquantile filtering proposed by
     Heydebreck in 2004

_U_s_a_g_e:

     iqrFilter()

_D_e_t_a_i_l_s:

     The aim of non specific filtering is to remove the genes that are
     unlikely to carry information about the phenotypes under
     investigation. This filtering remove genes that show little
     changes within  the experimental points.

_N_o_t_e:

     Factor analysis will be limited by the problem of having fewer
     samples than genes. Therefore, preselecting a smaller set of genes
     is definetively helpful.
