calculateMetaTable

Description

calculates the average gene expression for one or more (combined) annotation columns.

Usage

calculateMetaTable(
  gobject,
  expression_values = c("normalized", "scaled", "custom"),
  metadata_cols = NULL,
  selected_genes = NULL
)

Arguments

Argument	Description
gobject	giotto object
expression_values	expression values to use
metadata_cols	annotation columns found in pDataDT(gobject)
selected_genes	subset of genes to use

Value

data.table with average expression values for each gene per (combined) annotation

Examples

data(mini_giotto_single_cell)

# show cell metadata
pDataDT(mini_giotto_single_cell)

# show average gene expression per annotated cell type
calculateMetaTable(mini_giotto_single_cell,
metadata_cols = 'cell_types')
