Legacy Utilities for Single-Cell RNA-Seq Analysis
Bioconductor version: 3.23 · Package version: 1.22.0
Provides some legacy utility functions for performing single-cell analyses. Most of these functions are deprecated in favor of newer, more performant alternatives. We just keep this package around for back-compatibility and to point to the replacement functions.
