Create spatial vectors for genes from count matrix and cell coordinates
Source:R/get_vectors.R
get_gene_vectors_cm.Rd
This function will build gene vectors with count matrix and cell locations
Arguments
- cluster_info
A dataframe/matrix containing the centroid coordinates, cluster label and sample for each cell.The column names must include "x" (x coordinate), "y" (y coordinate), "cluster" (cluster label) and "sample" (sample).
- cm_lst
A list of named matrices containing the count matrix for each sample The name must match the sample column in
cluster_info
. If this input is provided, thecluster_info
must be specified and contain an additional column "cell_id" to link cell location and count matrix. Default is NULL.- bin_type
A string indicating which bin shape is to be used for vectorization. One of "square" (default), "rectangle", or "hexagon".
- bin_param
A numeric vector indicating the size of the bin. If the
bin_type
is "square" or "rectangle", this will be a vector of length two giving the numbers of rectangular quadrats in the x and y directions. If thebin_type
is "hexagonal", this will be a number giving the side length of hexagons. Positive numbers only.- test_genes
A vector of strings giving the name of the genes you want to test. This will be used as column names for one of the result matrix
gene_mt
.- w_x
A numeric vector of length two specifying the x coordinate limits of enclosing box.
- w_y
A numeric vector of length two specifying the y coordinate limits of enclosing box.
