## Accessor Method for the `noiseFilter` slot in a `parameterOptions` object

### Description

Accessor Method for the `noiseFilter` slot in a `parameterOptions` object

### Usage

    noiseFilter(object)

### Arguments

`object` | `object` is `parameterOptions` object

### Details

Noise filtering method that should be used on ChIP-seq data. Four methods are available: Zero, Mean, Median and Sigmoid. Zero removes all ChIP-seq scores bellow zero, mean under the mean score, median under median score and sigmoid assignes a weight to each score based on a logistic regression curve. Mid point is set at 95 95 quantile of ChIP-seq scores. Below midpoint will receive a score between 0 and 1 , everything above will receive a score between 1 and 2

### Value

Returns the value assigned to the `noiseFilter` slot in a `parameterOptions` object.
