retrieveFeatureIndex: Retrieve row index for a set of features

In campbio/celda: CEllular Latent Dirichlet Allocation

Retrieve row index for a set of features

Description

This will return indices of features among the rownames or rowData of a data.frame, matrix, or a SummarizedExperiment object including a SingleCellExperiment. Partial matching (i.e. grepping) can be used by setting exactMatch = FALSE.

Usage

retrieveFeatureIndex(
  features,
  x,
  by = "rownames",
  exactMatch = TRUE,
  removeNA = FALSE
)

Arguments

features	Character vector of feature names to find in the rows of x.
x	A data.frame, matrix, or SingleCellExperiment object to search.
by	Character. Where to search for features in x. If set to "rownames" then the features will be searched for among rownames(x). If x inherits from class SummarizedExperiment, then by can be one of the fields in the row annotation data.frame (i.e. one of colnames(rowData(x))).
exactMatch	Boolean. Whether to only identify exact matches or to identify partial matches using grep.
removeNA	Boolean. If set to FALSE, features not found in x will be given NA and the returned vector will be the same length as features. If set to TRUE, then the NA values will be removed from the returned vector. Default FALSE.

Value

A vector of row indices for the matching features in x.
