mmc.Hierarchy.add_classification()

Hierarchy.add_classification(name, parent_subset, markers, is_cutoff=None, **kwargs)

Add a Classification beneath a Subset. Checks if it is correctly positioned in the tree before adding.

Parameters:

• name (str) – Name of the Classification node. Names must be unique and should not contain an asterisk.

• parent_subset (str) – Name of the Subset that should parent this new node, use ‘All’ for the root node.

• markers (Union[str, List[str]]) – The features that will be used for high-confidence thresholding to define subsets beneath this classification. During thresholding, matching or similar feature names are looked up first in the provided data_key(s), then in the .var. See mmc.utils.marker for details on marker lookup.

• is_cutoff (Optional[bool] (default: None)) – Whether to be a cutoff or a classifier. If None, uses the default.

• **kwargs – arguments to pass to Classification class constructor
