Tests for enrichment of doublets created from each cluster (i.e. cluster's stickiness). Only applicable with >=4 clusters. Note that when applied to an multisample object, this functions assumes that the cluster labels match across samples.
Usage
clusterStickiness(
x,
type = c("quasibinomial", "nbinom", "binomial", "poisson"),
inclDiff = NULL,
verbose = TRUE
)
Arguments
- x
A table of double statistics, or a SingleCellExperiment on which scDblFinder was run using the cluster-based approach.
- type
The type of test to use (quasibinomial recommended).
- inclDiff
Logical; whether to include the difficulty in the model. If NULL, will be used only if there is a significant trend with the enrichment.
- verbose
Logical; whether to print additional running information.
Examples
sce <- mockDoubletSCE(rep(200,5), dbl.rate=0.2)
sce <- scDblFinder(sce, clusters=TRUE, artificialDoublets=500)
