plot_heatmap() is a function that allows users to plot distances between samples from different time points to investigate the similarity of progression of gene expression states between species before or after registration.

Usage

plot_heatmap(
  results,
  type = c("registered", "original"),
  match_timepoints = FALSE,
  title = NULL,
  axis_fontsize = NULL
)

Arguments

results

Results containing distances between two different reference and query data, output of calculate_distance.

type

Type of plot, determines whether to use "registered" or "original" time points. By default, "registered".

match_timepoints

If TRUE, will match query time points to reference time points.

title

Optional plot title.

axis_fontsize

Font size of X and Y axes labels.

Value

Distance heatmap of gene expression profiles over time between two different species.
