  meta_data = NULL,
  pseudotime_column = NULL,
  method = c("entropy", "max"),
  entropy_method = c("Shannon", "Renyi"),

Arguments

network_table: The weight data table of network.
matrix: The expression matrix.
meta_data: The meta data for cells or samples.
pseudotime_column: The column of pseudotime.
method: The method used for filter edges. Could be choose entropy or max.
entropy_method: If setting method to entropy, could be choose Shannon or Renyi to compute entropy.
effective_entropy: Default is FALSE. Logical value, using effective entropy to filter weights or not.
shuffles: Default is 100. The number of shuffles used to calculate the effective transfer entropy.
entropy_nboot: Default is 300. The number of bootstrap replications for each direction of the estimated transfer entropy.
lag_value: Default is 1. Markov order of gene expression values, i.e. the number of lagged values affecting the current value of gene expression values.
entropy_p_value: P value used to filter edges by entropy.
cores: The number of cores to use for parallelization with foreach, default is 1.
verbose: Logical value, default is TRUE, whether to print progress messages.

Value
