func Compute

func Compute(controls, experiments *mat64.Dense, r float64) *mat64.Vector

Compute computes the characteristic direction vector from the given set of controls and experiments. Controls should have a column for every control and a row for every gene. Likewise experiments should have a column for every experiment and a row for every gene. r is a regularization term between 0 and 1 inclusive that smooths the covariance matrix and reduces potential noise in the dataset. The default value for r is 1, which means no regularization. See http://www.maayanlab.net/CD/ for more information.
