Description

Helper function to check the arguments input to getAutomaticCountsEstimates.

Usage

checkAutomaticCountsEstimatesArguments(
  probeCounts,
  radius,
  height,
  volumeFracCorrection
)

Arguments

probeCounts	A matrix where the first column contains the areas of the nuclear blobs (this column must be named "area" and the unit of its entries must be the square of the unit used to measure radius and height) and the remaining columns (one per probe) contain the spot counts for different probes in each nuclear blob
radius	The cells' nuclear radius (must be measured in same unit as height)
height	The section height (must be measured in same unit as radius)
volumeFracCorrection	The method used to correct for volume fraction (must be 'avg', 'max', or 'min'; defaults to 'avg')

Value

Nothing if all checks are passed; otherwise throws an error or warning message
