Internal function that decides how transformations should be returned to the parent SpatialMap object.

Usage

which_returns(object, choice, args)

Arguments

object

A SpatialMap object

choice

The analysis type, which will determine the function logic.

args

The arguments returned from "which_analysis". Formatted as a list.

Value

SpatialMap

Details

There are currently 3 possibilities that correspond exactly to those found in the which_analysis function:

  • 1. Region-wise analyses. In this case, the result of the iterator is simply returned to the SpatialMap

  • 2. Formal Analysis objects. In this case, the Analysis is updated, and a splitting operation is performed to update each of the individual Regions that comprise the Analysis

  • 3. Informal grouped Regions (e.g., grouping Regions by batch for normalization). In this case, no Analysis is added or updated in the SpatialMap, but individual Regions are updated.
