The qreduceAssay() example from the RaggedExperiment vignette demonstrates reducing multiple ranges using a weightedmean function, but there are not actually any ranges requiring weighted means:

library(GenomicRanges)
library(RaggedExperiment)
sample1 <- GRanges(
    c(A = "chr1:1-10:-", B = "chr1:8-14:+", C = "chr2:15-18:+"),
    score = 3:5)
sample2 <- GRanges(
    c(D = "chr1:1-10:-", E = "chr2:11-18:+"),
    score = 1:2)
colDat <- DataFrame(id = 1:2)
ragexp <- RaggedExperiment(sample1 = sample1,
                           sample2 = sample2,
                           colData = colDat)
query <- GRanges(c("chr1:1-14:-", "chr2:11-18:+"))
weightedmean <- function(scores, ranges, qranges)
{
    isects <- pintersect(ranges, qranges)
    sum(scores * width(isects)) / sum(width(isects))
}
(res <- qreduceAssay(ragexp, query, simplifyReduce = weightedmean))
##              sample1 sample2
## chr1:1-14:-        3       1
## chr2:11-18:+       5       2

Here is a simpler RaggedExperiment that contains two ranges falling within one of the query ranges:

ragexp2 <- RaggedExperiment(sample1=GRanges(
    c(A = "chr1:1-10:-", B = "chr1:11-14:-"),
    score = 3:4))

This throws an error:

try(qreduceAssay(ragexp2, query, simplifyReduce = weightedmean))
Error in .pintersect_GRangesList_GRanges(x, y, drop.nohit.ranges = drop.nohit.ranges,  : 
  'y' must have the length of 'x' or length 1

But what I was hoping to have returned in this example was:

matrix(c((3 * 10 + 4 * 4) / 14, 0), ncol=1, dimnames=dimnames(res[, 1, drop=FALSE]))
##               sample1
## chr1:1-14:-  3.285714
## chr2:11-18:+ 0.000000

Here is a gist containing this code.

The weightedmean function on the help page is

weightedmean <- function(scores, ranges, qranges)
    ## weighted average score per query range
    sum(scores * width(ranges)) / sum(width(ranges))

(should the denominator be width(qranges)?) and the results seem to be correct for both your examples, adjusted so that ?

> (res <- qreduceAssay(ragexp, query, simplifyReduce = weightedmean))
             sample1 sample2
chr1:1-14:-        3       1
chr2:11-18:+       5       2
> try(qreduceAssay(ragexp2, query, simplifyReduce = weightedmean))
              sample1
chr1:1-14:-  3.285714
chr2:11-18:+       NA

and for a modified version of the help page example...

> sample1 <- GRanges(
+     c(A = "chr1:1-10:-", B = "chr1:8-14:-", C = "chr2:15-18:+"),
+     score = 3:5)
> sample2 <- GRanges(
+     c(D = "chr1:1-10:-", E = "chr2:11-18:+"),
+     score = 1:2)
> query <- GRanges(c("chr1:1-14:-", "chr2:11-18:+"))
> colDat <- DataFrame(id = 1:2)
> ragexp3 <- RaggedExperiment(sample1 = sample1,
+                            sample2 = sample2,
+                            colData = colDat)
> qreduceAssay(ragexp3, query, simplifyReduce = weightedmean)
              sample1 sample2
chr1:1-14:-  3.411765       1
chr2:11-18:+ 5.000000       2
