infer missing data using the upstream neighbour bin

This function fills in NAs of columns with the information from an upstream bin. The exception are bins missing from the start of chromosomes, which are filled by their downstream neighbour if there is nothing upstream.

Usage

fill_state_from_neighbours(state_df, cols_to_fill = c("state"))

Arguments

state_df

dataframe of state data with NAs for some bins that need to be filled in. E.g., after dlptools::running add_missing_bins_for_cells()

Details

Primarily used to fill in "state" data for filtered bins. But can also pass other states to fill in.
