Get the Rank of the Mean expression for each Gene in each Group

Description

This function finds the rank of each gene's mean expression all cells in a group. This data is used to compute the rank invariance value for each gene later with rank_invariance().

Usage

rank_group(sce, group_col = "cellType", assay = "logcounts")

Arguments

sce	SummarizedExperiment-class object with the assay (defaults to logcounts).
group_col	name of the column in the colData() of sce that defines the group of interest.
assay	A character(1) specifying the name of the assay() in the sce object to use to rank expression values. Defaults to logcounts since it typically contains the normalized expression values.

Value

Named list() of ranks for each gene.

Examples

## Rank the genes for each group defined by "group" column
rank_group(sce_zero_test, group_col = "group")
