visiumStitched 1.1.1

NEW FEATURES

  • build_SpatialExperiment() (and add_array_coords()) takes a new parameter algorithm whose default is now “LSAP”. The older implementation is available via the “Euclidean” algorithm. The now LSAP approach is a significant improvement in how new array coordinates are assigned, preventing all duplicate and most empty mappings within a single capture area, leading to improvements in downstream applications like clustering.

visiumStitched 0.99.0

NEW FEATURES

  • Initial version of the visiumStiched package that provides utilities for stitching together Visium capture areas and enables seamless downstream spatially-aware clustering methods to identify clusters on the stitched data. An example postmortem human brain dataset composed of 3 Visium capture areas was generated to demonstrate the utility of visiumStitched. The dataset is available from spatiaLIBD::fetch_data() version 1.17.8 or newer. The example data is described at https://research.libd.org/visiumStitched_brain/.
