select_genes: Select genes to use in building a cell trajectory

Description

This function uses "neighborhood variance" to identify genes that vary smoothly, rather than fluctuating randomly, across the set of cells. Genes selected in this way can then be used to construct a trajectory.

Usage

select_genes(embedding)

Arguments

embedding

Low-dimensional LLE embedding of cells

Value

Vector containing indices of selected genes

Examples

# NOT RUN {
genes = select_genes(traj)
# }
