# This example is run using a fake expression matrix.
# Therefore, the output will be meaningless.

############# Fake expression matrix #############

exprMatrix <- matrix(data=sample(c(rep(0, 5000), sample(1:3, 5000, replace=TRUE))),

############## Step 2: Calculate AUC #############

# In this example we use two gene sets: 10 and 5 random genes
# (see other formatting examples at the end)
fewGenes <- sample(rownames(exprMatrix), 10)
otherGenes <- sample(rownames(exprMatrix), 5)

geneSets <- list(geneSet1=fewGenes,
                 geneSet2=otherGenes)
geneSets

# Calculate AUC with the rankings from Step 1.
# To be able to run this fake example (which contain only 20 genes),
# we use aucMaxRank=5 (top 25% of the genes in the ranking)
cells_AUC <- AUCell_calcAUC(geneSets, cells_rankings, aucMaxRank=5, nCores=1)

# Format of the output:
cells_AUC

# To subset & access the AUC slot (as matrix):
cells_AUC[1:2,]
cells_AUC[,3:4]
getAUC(cells_AUC)[,1:5]


# These methods are also available:
dim(cells_AUC)
nrow(cells_AUC)
ncol(cells_AUC)
colnames(cells_AUC)[1:4]
rownames(cells_AUC)
