Dear Jacob,
Try identifying which gene is causing the error. Edit the function
duplicateCorrelation, by using
fix(duplicateCorrelation), to add the line
cat(i,"\n")
immediately before the line
y <- drop(M[i, ])
Then try running duplicateCorrelation() again. This will tell you
which gene is causing the problem.
Suppose the problem is at gene 10000. Looking at the data
MA[10000,]
may tell you what the problem is. Alternatively it might be enough to
simply remove the offending
gene from the duplicateCorrelation calculation by
duplicateCorrelation(MA[-10000,],design)
Removing one gene will not make any material different to the computed
value.
Best wishes
Gordon
