PropCellTypes-class {SpatialDDLS}

The PropCellTypes Class

Description

The PropCellTypes class is a data storage class which contains information related to cell type composition matrices used to simulate mixed transcriptional profiles. This matrix is stored in the prob.matrix slot while the other slots contain additional information generated during the process and required for subsequent steps.

Details

See ?genMixedCellProp function for information about how cell type composition matrices are generated. Plots of cell type proportion distributions can be accessed using the showProbPlot function (see ?showProbPlot for more details).
