Infiltration Score Between Two Phenotypes
infiltrationScore.Rd
The infiltration score, or SpatialScore, is defined as the degree to which an infiltrating cell
type interacts with a base, or background cell type. This function computes this score between two groups of
cell types, termed the infil_group
or infiltration group, and bg_group
or background group. The function
returns a data.frame containing the score.
Usage
