Error -- SPP package, MSER -- could you please help

[abmmki]

Hi,

I have some ChIp-seq data (Illumina v1.4; and ELAND extended mapped) and trying to analyze them using spp R package (http://www.nature.com/nbt/journal/v2.../nbt.1508.html) and package (http://compbio.med.harvard.edu/Supplements/ChIP-seq/). I am following the tutorial and it was going fine until MSER step which I really need. I got the following error:

mser <- get.mser(RLTA_chip.data, RLTA_input.data, step.size=1e5, test.agreement=0.99, n.chains=10, cluster=NULL, fdr=0.05, method=tag.wtd, whs=detection.window.halfsize)

excluding systematic background anomalies ... done
calculating statistical thresholds
FDR 0.05 threshold= Inf
chained subsampling using fraction 0.9510645 .

Error in ecdf(-mpd$re) : 'x' must have 1 or more non-missing values

In addition: Warning messages:

2: In min(npld$y[npld$fdr <= fdr]) :

Could you please help to understand where is the error........................and how can I solve this. (I have a data set where control has much much more tags then in sample IP................14 million versus 2 million.....................so, I want to use the mser)

Also in get.mser function: >> method=tag.wtd ............................I wanted to change it like method=tag.lwcc........................like following:



mser <- get.mser(RLTA_chip.data, RLTA_input.data, step.size=1e5, test.agreement=0.99, n.chains=10, cluster=NULL, fdr=0.05, method=tag.lwcc, whs=detection.window.halfsize, skip.control.normalization = F)

I got following error:


chained subsample step 0 :
finding background exclusion regions ... done
determining peaks on provided 1 control datasets:
using reversed signal for FDR calculations
bg.weight= 2.936861 processing chr1 in 7 steps [Error in lwcc(x, y, s, e, return.peaks = return.peaks, bg.x = bg.x, bg.y = bg.y, :
unused argument(s) (skip.control.normalization = TRUE)


I did not find any documentation about skip.control.normalization....................................tried to write tha "FALSE"................but it then gave me two un used arguments (TRUE and FALSE)...........................so, how to solve this problem ??


Thank you in advance for your generous help.

may be you can ans in my mail directly:
