find_peak: Peak Detection

Description

The determination of the peak uses the densest fraction (default fraction = .1 ) of events, the lower bound and the upper bound (default width = .5 )

Usage

find_peak(data, width = 0.5, fraction = 0.1)

Arguments

data

FCS file.

width

Parameter used to find the lower bound (default width at half maximum) and the upper bound (default .5).

fraction

Parameter used to find the densest fraction of cells (default .1).

Value

• Peaks for the scatters.

Details

This function will be used with the function scatter_gate.
