runBarcodeRankDrops(
  inSCE,
  sample = NULL,
  useAssay = "counts",
  lower = 100,
  fitBounds = NULL,
  df = 20
)

Arguments

inSCE

A SingleCellExperiment object. Must contain a raw counts matrix before empty droplets have been removed.

sample

Character vector. Indicates which sample each cell belongs to emptyDrops will be run on cells from each sample separately. If NULL, then all cells will be processed together. Default NULL.

useAssay

A string specifying which assay in the SCE to use.

lower

See emptyDrops for more information. Default 100.

fitBounds

See emptyDrops for more information. Default NULL.

df

See emptyDrops for more information. Default 20.

Value

A SingleCellExperiment object with the barcodeRanks output table appended to the colData slot. The columns include dropletUtils_BarcodeRank_Knee and dropletUtils_BarcodeRank_Knee Please refer to the documentation of barcodeRanks for details.
