R functions for visualizing Visium data.
Installation: simply clone the repo and run from R (notice /path/to/repo/
points to the parent directory, not the VisualVisium
directory itself):
library('devtools')
setwd("/path/to/repo/")
install('VisualVisium')
This helper package contains two functions:
cntmtr_tpl
loads the count matrix and the tissue positions list -- probably the two most important data objects produced by the Visium array -- into R objects.
visium_bands
groups Visium spots into bands that align with the perimeter of the tissue.
