## Marker Gene Detection

### Description

Function to detect marker genes using normalized RNA-seq data and show the marker genes in HTML tables with links to various online annotation sources (Ensembl, GenBank and EntrezGene repositories)

### Usage

    getMarkerGenes.rnaseq.html(data.mat, samples2compare="all", gene.ids.type="ensembl",score.cutoff=1, directory = getwd())

### Arguments

`data.mat` | RNA-seq gene expression matrix with genes corresponding to rows and samples corresponding to columns.
`samples2compare` | A character vector with the sample names to be compared (e.g. c("liver", "lung", "brain")). By default all samples in the reference matrix are used.
`gene.ids.type` | Type of the used gene identifiers, the following gene identifiers are supported: ensembl, refseq and ucsc gene ids. default is ensembl.
`score.cutoff` | A value in the interval [0,1] to filter the markers according to the specificity score. The default value is 1 (no filtering).
`directory` | Path to the directory where to save the html pages, default is the current working directory.

### Details

This function is based on the function htmlpage from the R-package 'annotate'.

### Value

This function is used only for the side effect of creating HTML tables.
