tobit.test: Differential expression testing using Tobit models

Description Usage Arguments Value

Description

Identifies differentially expressed genes between two groups of cells using Tobit models, as proposed in Trapnell et al., Nature Biotechnology, 2014

Usage

1
2
tobit.test(object, cells.1, cells.2, genes.use = NULL, thresh.use = log(2),
  print.bar = TRUE)

Arguments

object

Seurat object

cells.1

Group 1 cells

cells.2

Group 2 cells

genes.use

Genes to test. Default is to use all genes.

thresh.use

Limit testing to genes which show, on average, at least X-fold difference (log-scale) between the two groups of cells.

Increasing thresh.use speeds up the function, but can miss weaker signals.

print.bar

Print a progress bar once expression testing begins (uses pbapply to do this)

Value

Returns a p-value ranked matrix of putative differentially expressed genes.
