Create a scCNVis object for plotting

This function creates a basic object containing the information needed to plot copy number data from a single-cell experiment. It expects an input matrix where each row represents a cell and each column represents a region of the genome.

createPlotObject(input.matrix, cell.names, granges, meta)

Arguments

input.matrix

An input matrix of class 'matrix'

cell.names

A character vector containing unique cell names. Should be equal to the number of rows in input.matrix

granges

A GenomicRanges GRanges object, where each range in the object corresponds to a column in the input.matrix

meta

Data.frame of meta data. Rownames should be cell.names. At a minimum, it must include a "Sample" column.

Value

A scCNVisObject containing 3 elements ("Matrix", "GRanges" and "Meta")
