(Main Function) Simulate spatially resolved transcriptomics data from a parameter file.

This function simulate spatially resolved transcriptomics data from a parameter file. The parameter file can be generated with an user interface run_interactive_sCCIgen().

Usage

ParaSimulation(input, ModelFitFile = NULL)

Arguments

input

The path and name of the parameter file.

ModelFitFile

Default = NULL, no existing models that fit in the distributions of input single-cell expression data. Alternatively, if models are provided, the algorithm will no longer need to fit the input data and can be faster. Not the input data may already provides the fitted models, then this can be NULL as well for speedy simulation.

Value

Simulated data (e.g. count, spatial feature, expression pattern) will be directly saved on your computer or cloud based on the path provided by the parameter file.
