  expression_values = c("normalized", "scaled", "custom"),
  detection_threshold = 0,
  return_gobject = TRUE
)

Arguments

gobject

giotto object

expression_values

expression values to use

detection_threshold

return_gobject

boolean: return giotto object (default = TRUE)

Value

giotto object if return_gobject = TRUE

Details

This function will add the following statistics to cell metadata:
