Compute the correlation of features broken down by groups with another covariate

GroupCorrelation(
  object,
  assay = NULL,
  slot = "scale.data",
  var = NULL,
  group.assay = NULL,
  min.cells = 5,
  ngroups = 6,
  do.plot = TRUE
)

Arguments

object	Seurat object
assay	Assay to pull the data from
slot	Slot in the assay to pull feature expression data from (counts, data, or scale.data)
var	Variable with which to correlate the features
group.assay	Compute the gene groups based off the data in this assay.
min.cells	Only compute for genes in at least this many cells
ngroups	Number of groups to split into
do.plot	Display the group correlation boxplot (via `GroupCorrelationPlot`)

Value

A Seurat object with the correlation stored in metafeatures
