Simulate a count matrix for a single cell type based on a (w/o copula model)

Usage

simulate_count_ind(model_params, n = 100, marginal = c("nb", "Gamma"))

Arguments

model_params

A list that contains the model parameters (can be either the copula model or the (w/o copula) model).

n

An integer value that indicates the number of cells to generate.

marginal

A character string that indicates whether the generated values should stay as discrete or switch to continuous. Default value is 'nb', which should be used for generating a count marix. The alternative 'Gamma' is only needed when this function is being called by other functions that generate data with a user-specified sequencing depth. Normally, users do not need to change this value.

Value

A matrix of shape p by n that contains the simulated count values. p is derived from model_params.
