MethyLumiM-class object or eSet-class object, which include methylated and unmethylated probe intensities
returnType
determine whether return an ExpressionSet (MethyLumiM in this case) or matrix object
offset
offset added to the methylated and unmethylated probe intensities when estimating the M-value
Details
M-value is the log2 ratio between Illumina methylated and unmethylated probe intensities. As variations of small intensities can cause big changes in the ratio estimation, so an offset is added to methylated and unmethylated probe intensities when estimating the M-value.
Value
A MethyLumiM or matrix object of methylation M-value
