Identifying active genes for subsequent analysis
We calculate zFPKM for existing FPKM from gse94802.

rm(esetlist, gse94802_fpkm, gse94802_counts, doe, colData, getSpecificGEOSupp)We compute zFPKM.
We can also plot the Guassian fit to the FPKM data for which the z-scores are based.
To determine which genes are active, we compute the median expression within each group.

mutate(gene=rownames(assay(se, "zfpkm"))) %>%
gather(sample_id, zfpkm, -gene) %>%
left_join(select(as.data.frame(colData(se)), sample_id, condition), by="sample_id") %>%
group_by(gene, condition) %>%
summarize(median_zfpkm=median(zfpkm)) %>%
ungroup() %>%
mutate(active=(median_zfpkm > -3)) %>%
filter(active) %>%
select(gene) %>%
distinct()
seActive <- SummarizedExperiment(
assays=SimpleList(counts=as.matrix(assay(se, "counts")[activeGenes$gene, ])),
