\title{
Calculate FDR q-values for differentially methylated regions (DMRs)
}
\description{
Estimate false discovery rate q-values for a set of differentially methylated regions using a permutation approach.
}
\usage{
dmrFdr(dmr, compare = 1, numPerms = 1000, seed = NULL, verbose = TRUE)
}
\arguments{
  \item{dmr}{
a dmr object as returned by \code{\link{dmrFinder}}
}
  \item{compare}{
The dmr table for which to calculate DMRs. See details.
}
  \item{numPerms}{
Number of permutations
}
  \item{seed}{
Random seed (for reproducibility)
}
  \item{verbose}{
Boolean
}
}
\details{
This function estimates false discovery rate q-values for a dmr object returned by \code{\link{dmrFinder}}. dmrFinder can return a set of DMR tables with one or more pair-wise comparisons between groups. dmrFdr currently only calculated q-values for one of these at a time. The dmr table to use (if the dmr object contains more than one) is specified by the compare option.
}
\value{
a list object in the same format as the input, but with extra p-val and q-val columns for the tabs element.
