robust rank aggregation method in R












0















I'm currently on a placement of a biomedical science degree, attempting to conduct a meta analysis of microRNA gene expression data. I have been asked by my lecturer to complete this using the robust rank aggregation method.



I have installed the relevant package into R ( https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/RobustRankAggreg/index.html) and have all of the data ( fold change gene expression and p value for each microRNA) that I need from the articles, I'm just not sure what format the data needs to be in ( ie. whether I input the data into R as one collective csv file etc) and then how I would go about performing the analysis.

Apologies in advance if this is simple, have only just started using R and as such I don't really know what I'm doing.



Any help would be greatly appreciated



Thanks, Ben.

You should first read the package vignette/manual to have some examples and at least get familiar with the most used ways to import data into R. Then maybe you can give a more hands on example.
