\title{The MFAParams class}
\description{
S4 class that holds parameters for the mfa simulation.
}
\section{Parameters}{


The mfa simulation uses the following parameters:
\describe{
    \item{\code{nGenes}}{The number of genes to simulate.}
    \item{\code{nCells}}{The number of cells to simulate.}
    \item{\code{[seed]}}{Seed to use for generating random numbers.}
    \item{\code{[trans.prop]}}{Proportion of genes that show transient
    expression. These genes are briefly up or down-regulated before returning
    to their initial state}
    \item{\code{[zero.neg]}}{Logical. Whether to set negative expression
    values to zero. This will zero-inflate the data.}
    \item{\code{[dropout.present]}}{Logical. Whether to simulate dropout.}
    \item{\code{dropout.lambda}}{Lambda parameter for the exponential
    dropout function.}
}

The parameters not shown in brackets can be estimated from real data using
\code{\link{mfaEstimate}}. See \code{\link[mfa]{create_synthetic}} for more
details about the parameters. For details of the Splatter implementation of
the mfa simulation see \code{\link{mfaSimulate}}.
