SlimR (version 1.1.1)

Parameter_Calculate: Adaptive Parameter Tuning for Single-Cell Data Annotation in SlimR

Description

This function automatically determines optimal min_expression, specificity_weight, and threshold parameters for single-cell data analysis based on dataset characteristics using adaptive algorithms derived from empirical analysis of single-cell datasets.

Usage

Parameter_Calculate(
  seurat_obj,
  features = NULL,
  assay = NULL,
  cluster_col = NULL,
  n_celltypes = 50,
  verbose = TRUE
)

Value

A list containing:

• min_expression: Recommended expression threshold

• specificity_weight: Recommended specificity weight

• threshold: Recommended probability threshold for candidate selection

• dataset_features: Extracted dataset characteristics

• parameter_rationale: Explanation of parameter choices

Arguments

seurat_obj

A Seurat object containing single-cell data

features

Character vector of feature names (genes) to analyze. If NULL, will use highly variable features from the Seurat object.

assay

Name of assay to use (default: default assay)

cluster_col

Column name in metadata containing cluster information

n_celltypes

Expected number of cell types in marker database (default: 50). Used for threshold recommendation calculation.

verbose

Whether to print progress messages (default: TRUE)
