Adjust expression values to account for known batch effects or technological covariates.
adjustGiottoMatrix( gobject, expression_values = c("normalized", "scaled", "custom"), batch_columns = NULL, covariate_columns = NULL, return_gobject = TRUE, update_slot = c("custom") )
| gobject | giotto object |
|---|---|
| expression_values | expression values to use |
| batch_columns | metadata columns that represent different batch (max = 2) |
| covariate_columns | metadata columns that represent covariates to regress out |
| return_gobject | boolean: return giotto object (default = TRUE) |
| update_slot | expression slot that will be updated (default = custom) |

This function implements the removeBatchEffect function to
remove known batch effects and to adjust expression values according to provided covariates.
