**What it does**

This tool identifies genes that are outliers on a 'mean variability plot'. First, uses
a function to calculate average expression (mean.function) and dispersion (dispersion.function)
for each gene. Next, divides genes into num.bin (deafult 20) bins based on
their average expression, and calculates z-scores for dispersion within each
bin. The purpose of this is to identify variable genes while controlling for
the strong relationship between variability and average expression.

For the mean.var.plot method: Exact parameter settings may vary empirically from
dataset to dataset, and based on visual inspection of the plot. Setting the
y.cutoff parameter to 2 identifies features that are more than two standard deviations
away from the average dispersion within a bin. The default X-axis function is the
mean expression level, and for Y-axis it is the log(Variance/mean). All
mean/variance calculations are not performed in log-space, but the results are
reported in log-space - see relevant functions for exact details.

**Inputs**

    * Seurat RDS object
    * Mean function. Function to compute x-axis value (average expression). Default is to take the mean of the detected (i.e. non-zero) values.
    * Dispersion function. Function to compute y-axis value (dispersion). Default is to take the standard deviation of all values.
    * Bottom cutoff on x-axis for identifying variable genes.
    * Top cutoff on x-axis for identifying variable genes.
    * Bottom cutoff on y-axis for identifying variable genes.
    * Top cutoff on y-axis for identifying variable genes.

-----

**Outputs**

    * Seurat RDS object. Places variable genes in [e-mail]. The result of all analysis is stored in [e-mail]
    * Tabular file of variable genes
