Computes the genewise covariance for a model coefficient from bootstrap replicates from `MAST::bootVcov1()`. If coefficients are unestimable (i.e. NA) for a gene, that row/column in the covariance matrix will be NA. Returns a list with components "C" and "D" containing the covariance matrices for the "C"ontinuous and "D"iscrete components of the MAST model.

CovFromBoots(boots = NULL, coefficient = NULL)

Arguments

boots

a multidimensional array returned by `bootVcov1` or `pbootVcov1`.

coefficient

`character` the name of the model coefficient for which to return the inter-gene covariance matrices.

Value

list with components "C" and "D" containing covariance matrices for the continuous and discrete components of the model.
