The following functions give an idea of the effect that different settings have on the ambient RNA profile.
The following functions give an idea of the effect that different settings have on the ambient RNA profile.
These are optional as they do take a few minutes and the default settings work fine
Plotting the number of empty droplets, the number of genes identified in the ambient RNA, and the number of genes that will be corrected for at different UMI cutoffs,

The empty droplet cutoff is the number of UMIs a droplet can contain at the most to be considered empty.

Finally write the corrected cell/gene matrix to a file, this matrix can be used in Seurat the same way as any other cell/gene matrix.
