_D_e_s_c_r_i_p_t_i_o_n:

     Estimate the emission probabilities that incorporate information
     on the confidence scores for the genotype calls.

_U_s_a_g_e:

     genotypeEmissionCrlmm(genotypes, conf, pHetCalledHom = 0.001, pHetCalledHet = 0.995, pHomInNormal = 0.99, pHomInRoh = 0.999, annotation)

_A_r_g_u_m_e_n_t_s:

genotypes: Matrix of genotypes

    conf: Matirx of confidence scores (see details).

pHetCalledHom: The probability that a truly heterozygous SNP is
          incorrectly called homozygous (incorrect call).

pHetCalledHet: The probability that a truly heterozygous SNP is called
          heterozygous (correct call).

pHomInNormal: The probability of a homozygous genotype call in the
          'normal' state.

pHomInRoh: The probability of a homozygous genotype call in a region of
          homozygosity.

annotation: The cdf name (e.g., "genomewidesnp6")

_D_e_t_a_i_l_s:

     The confidence scores by crlmm are saved as an integer:
     1000*log(1-p), where p is the probability that the genotype call
     is correct.

     The reference distribution of confidence scores are available for
     the following Affymetrix platforms: affy6, nsp250, and sty250k.

_V_a_l_u_e:

     An R x C x X array of emission probabilities, where

     R = number of loci (SNPs) C = number of samples S = number of
     states
