rnalysis.filtering.DESeqFilter.split_fold_change_direction

DESeqFilter.split_fold_change_direction() → tuple

Splits the features in the DESeqFilter object into two non-overlapping DESeqFilter objects, based on the direction of their log2foldchange. The first object will contain only features with a positive log2foldchange, the second object will contain only features with a negative log2foldchange.

Return type:

Tuple[filtering.DESeqFilter, filteirng.DESeqFilter]

Returns:

a tuple containing two DESeqFilter objects: the first has only features with positive log2 fold change, and the other has only features with negative log2 fold change.

Examples:

>>> from rnalysis import filtering
>>> d = filtering.DESeqFilter('tests/test_files/test_deseq.csv')
>>> pos, neg = d.split_fold_change_direction()
Filtered 2 features, leaving 26 of the original 28 features. Filtering result saved to new object.
