Generates a distribution of interaction p-values which are compared to the expected NULL distribution. Also assesses the frequency of highly influential data points using dfbetas for the regression slope and compares the dfbetas to randomly generated simulation data. Calculates omnibus class effects.
This function filters the output from the anotaGetSigGenes function based on many user defined thresholds and flags to generate a summary table and optional per gene plots.
One assumption when performing APV is that the residuals from the regressions are normally distributed. anota assesses this by comparing the Q-Q plots of the residuals to envelopes derived by sampling from the normal distribution.
