set.seed(1)
m <- matrix(sample(0:1, 25, replace=TRUE), 5)
m[1, ] <- 0
m[, 1] <- 0
rownames(m) <- colnames(m) <- letters[1:5]
fd <- data.frame(row.names = letters[1:5])
x <- MSnSet(exprs = m, fData = fd, pData = fd)
exprs(x)
#>   a b c d e
#> a 0 0 0 0 0
#> b 0 0 0 1 0
#> c 0 0 0 1 0
#> d 0 1 0 1 0
#> e 0 1 0 0 0
## Remove columns with no 1s
exprs(filterBinMSnSet(x, MARGIN = 2, t = 0))
#> Removing 3 column(s)
#>   b d
#> a 0 0
#> b 0 1
#> c 0 1
#> d 1 1
#> e 1 0
## Remove columns with one 1 or less
exprs(filterBinMSnSet(x, MARGIN = 2, t = 1))

## Remove columns with three 1s 
exprs(filterBinMSnSet(x, MARGIN = 2, t = 3))
#> Removing 5 column(s)
#>  
#> a
#> b
#> c
#> d
