Can edgeR take normalized readcount table directly (I want to use other functions of edgeR but I prefer to normalize the data myself)

Thank you!

The question is the same as in the title

If you want to normalize the data yourself, why do you want to use edgeR?

[muhe1985]

There are other functions in edgeR that I want to use

What/ How are you doing normalization by yourself?
