 <p>Looking at the output of <code>splatSimulate</code> we can see that <code>sim</code> is <code>SingleCellExperiment</code> object with 1000 features (genes) and 40 samples (cells). The main part of this object is a features by samples matrix containing the simulated counts (accessed using <code>counts</code>), although it can also hold other expression measures such as FPKM or TPM. Additionaly a <code>SingleCellExperiment</code> contains phenotype information about each cell (accessed using <code>colData</code>) and feature information about each gene (accessed using <code>rowData</code>). Splatter uses these slots, as well as <code>assays</code>, to store information about the intermediate values of the simulation.</p>

We can see that the cells with dark colours are more similar to the originating cell type and the light coloured cells are closer to the final, differentiated, cell type. By setting additional parameters it is possible to simulate more complex process (for example multiple mature cell types from a single progenitor).</p>

The difference is that batch effects are applied to all genes, not just those that are differentially expressed, and the effects are usually smaller.

 <p>The default method used by <code>addGeneLengths</code> to simulate lengths is to generate values from a log-normal distribution which are then rounded to give an integer length. The parameters for this distribution are based on human protein coding genes but can be adjusted if needed (for example for other species). Alternatively lengths can be sampled from a provided vector (see <code><a href="../reference/addGeneLengths.html">?addGeneLengths</a></code> for details and an example).</p>

 <p>Sometimes instead of visually comparing datasets it may be more interesting to look at the differences between them. We can do this using the <code>diffSCEs</code> function. Similar to <code>compareSCEs</code> this function takes a list of <code>SingleCellExperiment</code> objects but now we also specify one to be a reference. A series of similar plots are returned but instead of showing the overall distributions they demonstrate differences from the reference.</p>

 <a href="#making-panels" class="anchor"></a>Making panels</h2>
 <p>Each of these comparisons makes several plots which can be a lot to look at. To make this easier, or to produce figures for publications, you can make use of the functions <code>makeCompPanel</code>, <code>makeDiffPanel</code> and <code>makeOverallPanel</code>.</p>
 <p>These functions combine the plots into a single panel using the <code>cowplot</code> package. The panels can be quite large and hard to view (for example in RStudio’s plot viewer) so it can be better to output the panels and view them separately. Luckily <code>cowplot</code> provides a convenient function for saving the images. Here are some suggested parameters for outputting each of the panels:</p>
