ClusterFreeExpression Not S4 object

[jayp2919]

Thank you for the amazing package, I was running the steps and everything was working until the differential gene analysis. Error of not an S4 object. I was not sure what the problem was as all the previous steps ran fine with the cao environment.

cao$estimateClusterFreeExpressionShifts(gene.selection="expression", min.n.between=1, min.n.within=1) Error in estimateClusterFreeExpressionShiftsC(t(cm), self$sample.per.cell[rownames(cm)], : Not an S4 object.

I appreciate your help and this tool!

@jayp2919 , What kind of data.object do you use? Is it a count matrix?

Without more commands and data to reproduce this bug, we're left guessing.

Could you share your data and the precise commands you ran here? That will help with debugging. The more you share, the better---we'll be able to reproduce the problems.

Best, Evan

Hello I am unable to perform downstream analysis of cluster differential expression/gene programs. I am using Seurat to load into cao- created from count matrices. Everything is working until cluster free expression.

I appreciate your help
