The SPADEResults object is a S4 object containing cell clustering results.
This object mainly stores the cluster abundance matrix (i.e. the number of cells associated to each sample for each cluster) and the cluster phenotypes matrix (i.e. the median expressions for each marker of each cluster).
In addition, this object can contain information about clustering results, such a SPADE tree.
The 'cluster.abundances' dataframe contains the number of cells associated to each sample for each cluster. This dataframe stores the clusters in rows and the samples in columns.
The 'cluster.phenotypes' dataframe stores the median expressions for each marker of each cluster. This dataframe stores in the first column the sample names, in the second column the cluster names, and in the others columns the maker median expressions.
The 'bounds' dataframe contains the marker expressions boundaries (minimum and maximum, or specific percentiles) for each marker.
The 'print()' and 'show()' can be used to display a summary of this object.
