vector_similarity: Compute similarity between two vectors

In NCBI-Hackathons/RClusterCT: Classifier for Single-cell RNA-seq Using Cell Clusters

Compute similarity between two vectors

Description

Compute the similarity score between two vectors using a customized scoring function Two vectors may be from either scRNA-seq or bulk RNA-seq data. The lengths of vec1 and vec2 must match, and must be arranged in the same order of genes. Both vectors should be provided to this function after pre-processing, feature selection and dimension reduction.

Usage

vector_similarity(vec1, vec2, compute_method, ...)

Arguments

vec1	test vector
vec2	reference vector
compute_method	method to run i.e. corr_coef
...	arguments to pass to compute_method function

Value

numeric value of desired correlation or distance measurement
