flowMap

A probabilistic algorithm for matching and comparing multiple flow cytometry samples

Bioconductor version: 2.13

This package provides an algorithm to compare and match cell populations across multiple flow cytometry samples. The method is based on the Friedman-Rafsky test, a nonparametric multivariate statistical test, where two cell distributions match if they occupy a similar feature space. The algorithm allows the users to specify a reference sample for comparison or to construct a reference sample from the available data. The output of the algorithm is a set of text files where the cell population labels are replaced by a metaset of population labels, generated from the matching process.
