agep: Age Prediction from methylomic expression data

Description

Predict age of samples using Horvath's Coefficients

Usage

agep(betas, coeff=NULL, verbose=FALSE)

Arguments

betas

Matrix of betas

coeff

If NULL, will default to Horvath's coefficients. Otherwise can be supplied with vector of own coefficients with an intercept as first element.

verbose

If TRUE, agep will additionally print out names of probes that are missing from coefficient list within supplied beta matrix.

Value

Returns matrix of predicted ages per sample.
