Exclude redundant regions — exclude_redundant

Your dataset may contain redundant information because it includes counts at different "ontological" resolutions. SMARTR initially operates at the highest "resolution" and later on, can fold sub-regions into parent regions later. Therefore redundant counts from parent regions should be removed from datasets using this function prior to analysis and plotting functions.

Usage

exclude_redundant_regions(e, ontology = "allen", channels = NULL)

Arguments

e: exoeriment object
ontology: (str, default = "allen") Region ontology to use. options = "allen" or "unified"
channels: (str, default = NULL) NULL option processes all channels. channels = c("cfos", "eyfp") specifies exact channels.

Value

e experiment object
