CovFromBoots {MAST} | R Documentation

## Extract the inter-gene covariance matrices for continuous and discrete components of a MAST model for a given coefficient from bootstrap replicates

### Description

Computes the genewise covariance for a model coefficient from bootstrap replicates from 'MAST::bootVcov1()'. If coefficients are unestimable (i.e. NA) for a gene, that row/column in the covariance matrix will be NA. Returns a list with components "C" and "D" containing the covariance matrices for the "C"ontinuous and "D"iscrete components of the MAST model.

### Usage

    CovFromBoots(boots = NULL, coefficient = NULL)

### Arguments

`boots` | a multidimensional array returned by 'bootVcov1' or 'pbootVcov1'.
`coefficient` | 'character' the name of the model coefficient for which to return the inter-gene covariance matrices.

### Value

list with components "C" and "D" containing covariance matrices for the continuous and discrete components of the model.
