compute_geodesic_entropy: Compute the geodesic entropy profile of a trajectory

In SLICER: Selective Locally Linear Inference of Cellular Expression Relationships

Description

The geodesic entropy of a trajectory can be used to detect branches. This function computes geodesic entropy and produces a plot that can be used to visually confirm the branches detected by assign_branches.

Usage

compute_geodesic_entropy(traj_graph, start)

Arguments

traj_graph	Nearest neighbor graph built from LLE embedding
start	Index of start cell

Value

Vector of geodesic entropy values. Item k is the geodesic entropy k steps away from the start cell.

Examples

## Not run: 
traj_lle = lle(traj[,genes],m=2,k)$Y
traj_graph = conn_knn_graph(traj_lle,5)
start=1
compute_geodesic_entropy(traj_graph,start)

## End(Not run)
