\title{
Calculate the soft threshold for a target FDR
}
\description{
'crit_fun' calculates the soft threshold for a target FDR.
}
\usage{
crit_fun(PPEE, thre)
}
\arguments{
  \item{PPEE}{The posterior probabilities of being EE.}
  \item{thre}{The target FDR.}

}
\details{
Regarding a target FDR alpha, both hard threshold and soft threshold could be used. 
If the hard threshold is preferred, user could simply take the transcripts with 
PP(DE) greater than (1-alpha). Using the hard threshold, any DE transcript in the 
list is with FDR <= alpha. 

If the soft threshold is preferred, user could take the transcripts with PP(DE) 
greater than crit_fun(PPEE, alpha). Using the soft threshold, the list of 
DE transcripts is with average FDR alpha.
}
\value{
The adjusted FDR threshold of target FDR.
