assignPrelim: Single-cell debarcoding (1)

In CATALYST: Cytometry dATa anALYSis Tools

Description

Assigns a preliminary barcode ID to each event.

Usage

assignPrelim(x, bc_key, assay = "exprs", verbose = TRUE)

Arguments

x	a SingleCellExperiment.
bc_key	the debarcoding scheme. A binary matrix with sample names as row names and numeric masses as column names OR a vector of numeric masses corresponding to barcode channels. When the latter is supplied, 'assignPrelim' will create a scheme of the appropriate format internally.
assay	character string specifying which assay to use.
verbose	logical. Should extra information on progress be reported?

Value

a SingleCellExperiment structured as follows:

assays

• counts - raw counts

• exprs - arcsinh-transformed counts

• scaled - population-wise scaled expression using (95%)-quantiles as boundaries

colData

• bc_idnumeric verctor of barcode assignments

• deltaseparation between positive and negative barcode populations

metadata

• bc_keythe input debarcoding scheme
