SpatialCPie

A tool for unsupervised clustering and analysis of single cell RNA-Seq data.

Implements miscellaneous functions for interpretation of single-cell RNA-seq data. Methods are provided for assignment of cell cycle phase, detection of highly variable and significantly correlated genes, identification of marker genes, and other common tasks in routine single-cell analysis workflows.

Our scLANE model uses truncated power basis spline models to build flexible, interpretable models of single cell gene expression over pseudotime or latent time. The modeling architectures currently supported are Negative-binomial GLMs, GEEs, & GLMMs. Downstream analysis functionalities include model comparison, dynamic gene clustering, smoothed counts generation, gene set enrichment testing, & visualization.

The scDiagnostics package provides diagnostic plots to assess the quality of cell type assignments from single cell gene expression profiles. The implemented functionality allows to assess the reliability of cell type annotations, investigate gene expression patterns, and explore relationships between different cell types in query and reference datasets allowing users to detect potential misalignments between reference and query datasets. The package also provides visualization capabilities for diagnostics purposes.

Implements R bindings to C++ code for analyzing single-cell (expression) data, mostly from various libscran libraries. Each function performs an individual step in the single-cell analysis workflow, ranging from quality control to clustering and marker detection. Additional wrappers are provided for easy construction of end-to-end workflows involving Bioconductor objects like SingleCellExperiments.

ILoReg is a tool for identification of cell populations from scRNA-seq data. In particular, ILoReg is useful for finding cell populations with subtle transcriptomic differences. The method utilizes a self-supervised learning method, called Iteratitive Clustering Projection (ICP), to find cluster probabilities, which are used in noise reduction prior to PCA and the subsequent hierarchical clustering and t-SNE steps. Additionally, functions for differential expression analysis to find gene markers for the populations and gene expression visualization are provided.
