Get the actual interaction values for a given interaction term in the data.

This function takes an interaction term, the dataset, and the names of the categorical variables as inputs. It calculates the actual interaction values based on the difference in log-transformed mean expression levels for the specified interaction term. The function first prepares the data for computing the interaction values and then generates the actual interaction values.

Usage

getActualInteractionFixEff(labelsInInteraction, data, categorical_vars)

Arguments

labelsInInteraction

A character vector containing the labels of the categorical levels involved in the interaction.

data

The dataset containing the gene expression data and categorical variables.

categorical_vars

A character vector containing the names of the categorical variables in the dataset.

Value

A data frame containing the actual interaction values.
