removeTinySamples {phemd} | R Documentation

## Remove samples with too few cells

### Description

Removes samples from Phemd that have fewer cells than `min_sz`

### Usage

    removeTinySamples(obj, min_sz = 20)

### Arguments

`obj` | 'Phemd' object containing raw expression data and associated metadata
`min_sz` | Minimum number of cells in each sample to be retained

### Details

Note: If used, this function must be called before (and not after) the `aggregateSamples` function is called

### Value

'Phemd' object containing raw multi-sample expression data and associated metadata (same as input minus removed samples)

### Examples

    my_phemdObj <- createDataObj(all_expn_data, all_genes, as.character(snames_data))
    my_phemdObj_lg <- removeTinySamples(my_phemdObj, 10) #removes samples with fewer than 10 cells
