S4 class that holds parameters for the simple simulation.

Parameters

The simple simulation uses the following parameters:

nGenes

The number of genes to simulate.

nCells

The number of cells to simulate.

[seed]

Seed to use for generating random numbers.

mean.shape

The shape parameter for the mean gamma distribution.

mean.rate

The rate parameter for the mean gamma distribution.

[count.disp]

The dispersion parameter for the counts negative binomial distribution.

The parameters not shown in brackets can be estimated from real data using simpleEstimate. For details of the simple simulation see simpleSimulate.
