get.variable.genes: Identify Highly Variable Genes

Description

Get highly variable genes by Heteroscedasticity controlled binning of gene expression measurements within each dataset separately.

Usage

get.variable.genes(environment, min.mean = 0.05, min.frac.cells = 0,
  min.dispersion.scaled = 1, rerun = F)

Arguments

environment

environment object

min.mean

minimum mean expression per gene

min.frac.cells

minimum fraction of cells expressing each gene

min.dispersion.scaled

minimum dispersion value

rerun

whether to rerun the analysis or load from cache

Value

environment parameter containing highly variable genes selection

Examples

# NOT RUN {
LCMV1 <- setup_LCMV_example()
LCMV1 <- get.variable.genes(LCMV1)
# }
