Function to find variable genes using mean variance relationship method

Description

Function to find variable genes using mean variance relationship method

Usage

findVariableGenes(
  X,
  groups,
  min_expr = 0.1,
  max_expr = Inf,
  min_dispersion = 0,
  max_dispersion = Inf,
  num.bin = 20,
  binning.method = "equal_width",
  return_top_n = 0
)

Arguments

X	expression matrix
groups	vector of groups
min_expr	min expression cutoff
max_expr	max expression cutoff
min_dispersion	min dispersion cutoff
max_dispersion	max dispersion cutoff
num.bin	number of bins to use for scaled analysis
binning.method	how bins are computed
return_top_n	returns top n genes

Value

A data.frame of variable genes
