)

Arguments

GRN

Object of class GRN

corMethod

Character. One of pearson, spearman or bicor. Default pearson. Method for calculating the correlation coefficient. For pearson and spearman , see cor for details. bicor denotes the *biweight midcorrelation*, a correlation measure based on medians as calculated by WGCNA::bicorAndPvalue. Both spearman and bicor are considered more robust measures that are less prone to be affected by outliers.

nCores

Integer >0. Default 1. Number of cores to use. A value >1 requires the BiocParallel package (as it is listed under Suggests, it may not be installed yet).

forceRerun

TRUE or FALSE. Default FALSE. Force execution, even if the GRN object already contains the result. Overwrites the old results.

Value

An updated GRN object, with additional information added from this function.
