sc_InitializingSincellObject: Function to initialize a sincell object

In sincell: R package for the statistical assessment of cell state hierarchies from single-cell RNA-seq data

Description

Function initializes a named list with a unique member so-called "expressionmatrix" containing the input gene expression matrix. Genes with a variance equal to zero are filtered out from the gene expression matrix at this step.

Usage

sc_InitializingSincellObject(BaseData)

Arguments

BaseData

A numeric matrix representing a gene expression matrix gathering the normalized expression levels of each single-cell in the experiment (displayed by columns) for each detected gene (displayed by rows).

Value

a named list: list(expressionmatrix=BaseData)

Examples

## Generate some random data
Data <- matrix(abs(rnorm(3000, sd=2)),ncol=10,nrow=300)

## Initializing SincellObject named list
mySincellObject <- sc_InitializingSincellObject(Data)

## To access the gene expression matrix
expressionmatrix<-mySincellObject[["expressionmatrix"]]
