This function compares the neighborhood of a cell with the neighorhoods of all of its k nearest neighors and prunes links to neighbors that do not co-occur in a defined minimum number of neighborhoods by setting their link p-value (entry in pvM data.frame of res input object) to 0.
cleanNN(res, minN = 2, no_cores = NULL)A res object with update pvalue entries (pvM element).
List object with k nearest neighbour information returned by pruneKnn function.
Positive integer number. Minimum of neighborhoods across the k nearest neighbours of a cell expected to share a neighbor with the cell. Default is 2.
Positive integer number. Number of cores for multithreading. If set to NULL then the number of available cores minus two is used. Default is NULL.
