overdispersions {BUSseq} | R Documentation

## Obtain the Overdispersion Parameters from the Output of the `BUSseq_MCMC` Function

### Description

The function gives the estimated overdispersion parameters in the output `SingleCellExperiment` object.

### Usage

    overdispersions(sce_BUSseqfit)

### Arguments

`sce_BUSseqfit` | An output `SingleCellExperiment` object obtained from the function `BUSseq_MCMC`.

### Value

`phi.est` | The estimated overdispersion parameters, a G by B matrix, where [g,b] element is the overdispersion parameter of gene g in batch b.
