Using overlapPermTest to compare two GRanges objects - a and b. a is a ChIP seq broad peaks GEO dataset downloaded directly from Annotation Hub in Bioconductor. b is a GRanges list of widths of peaks of my own ChIP seq data. I tried the following code and it worked
random_list = overlapPermTest(a, b, ntimes=1000, genome="BSgenome.Hsapiens.UCSC.hg19", count.once=TRUE)
giving expected output as listed in regioneR tutorial.
But when I try to do the randomization on MASKED hg19 genome - which I downloaded here:
biocLite("BSgenome.Hsapiens.UCSC.hg19.masked")
library(BSgenome.Hsapiens.UCSC.hg19.masked)
And I run the following:
random_list = overlapPermTest(a, b, ntimes=1000, genome="BSgenome.Hsapiens.UCSC.hg19.masked", count.once=TRUE)
It stalled x 3. No error message, just stopped computing and crashed my R session.
Any suggestions appreciated,
Thank you in advance,
Joy
