Setting-up the model
Before you can run the actual comparison between groups you have to tell DiffBind how samples are split between them. The easiest way to do this is to use one of the predefined categories DiffBind attaches to the samples. These include commonly used groupings of interest like the condition or tissue associated with each sample. You can indicate which one you would like to use via the categories argument using constants like DBA_CONDITION and DBA_TISSUE. The help page for dba.contrast() has a complete list of the available constants.
