fit_var {RNAdecay} | R Documentation

## sigma^2 estimation

### Description

Calculates the variance (sigma^2) estimate from the sum of the squared errors from the fit model.

### Usage

    fit_var(sse, n)

### Arguments

`sse` | is the minimum SSE (sum of the squared errors) from the slsqp() fitting
`n` | is the total number of observations of a single gene (e.g., 8 time points X 4 replicates X 4 treatments/genotypes = 128)

### Value

returns the sigma squared estimate

### Examples

    fit_var(1,128)
