compmedoids function

Computes Medoids from a Clustering Partition

This functions computes cluster medoids given an SCseq object and a clustering partition. The medoids are either derived from the distance matrix or, if the slot distances is empty, from the dimensionally reduced feature matrix in slot dimRed$x using the euclidean metric.

compmedoids(object, part)

Arguments

• object: SCseq class object.
• part: Clustering partition. A vector of cluster numbers for (a subset of) cells (i.e. column names) of slot ndata from the SCseq object.

Returns

Returns a list of medoids (column names of slot ndata from the SCseq object) ordered by increasing cluster number.
