Aggregate Deconvolution Results — aggregate

Combines multiple result columns into a single aggregated column in a SpatialExperiment. You can pass a list of cell types (cell_types) or use the deprecated two-parameter form (cell_type_1, cell_type_2) for backward compatibility.

Usage

aggregate_results(
  spatial_obj = NULL,
  cell_types = NULL,
  cell_type_1 = NULL,
  cell_type_2 = NULL,
  name = NULL,
  remove = FALSE
)

Arguments

spatial_obj: SpatialExperiment containing deconvolution results.
cell_types: List of cell types to aggregate (preferred). If provided, cell_type_1 and cell_type_2 are ignored.
cell_type_1: (Deprecated) First cell type to aggregate.
cell_type_2: (Deprecated) Second cell type to aggregate.
name: Optional name for the aggregated result. Defaults to concatenated cell type names.
remove: Logical; remove the original cell type columns after aggregation.

Value

SpatialExperiment with the aggregated result added to colData.
