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

     This function detects MAD outliers.

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

     detectOutliers.profileChr(profileChr, region="Region", alpha=0.001, verbose=FALSE, ...)

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

profileChr: Object of class 'profileChr'.

  region: Label which indicated where outliers are detected.

   alpha: Risk alpha.

 verbose: If 'TRUE' some information are printed

     ...: 

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

     The MAD outliers are detected within this function. The object of
     class 'profileChr' has the same characteristics than the object of
     class 'profileCGH' but corresponds to the values of only one
     chromosome.

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

     An object of class 'profileChr' with the following element added
     to the data.frame 'profileValues':

OutliersMad: Each MAD outliers are flagged by -1 (if it is in the lower
          tail of the distribution) or 1 (if it is in the upper tail of
          the distribution) otherwise  it is 0.

OutliersTot: OutliersAws + OutliersMad.
