Locality Sensitive Imputation for Single-Cell RNA-Seq Data
نویسنده
چکیده
One of the most notable challenges in single cell RNA-Seq data analysis is the so called drop-out effect, where only a fraction of the transcriptome of each cell is captured. The random nature of drop-outs, however, makes it possible to consider imputation methods as means of correcting for drop-outs. In this paper we study some existing scRNA-Seq imputation methods and propose a novel iterative imputation approach based on efficiently computing highly similar cells. We then present the results of a comprehensive assessment of existing and proposed methods on real scRNA-Seq datasets with varying per cell sequencing depth.

A Graph-Based Clustering Approach to Identify Cell Populations in Single-Cell RNA Sequencing Data
Introduction: The emergence of single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) technology has provided new information about the structure of cells, and provided data with very high resolution of the expression of different genes for each cell at a single time. One of the main uses of scRNA-seq is data clustering based on expressed genes, which sometimes leads to the detection of rare cell populations. ...

متن کاملscImpute: accurate and robust imputation for single cell RNA-seq data
The analysis of single-cell RNA-seq (scRNA-seq) data is complicated and biased by excess zero or near zero counts, the so-called dropouts due to the low amounts of mRNA sequenced within individual cells. We introduce scImpute, a statistical method to accurately and robustly impute the dropouts in scRNA-seq data. scImpute is shown as an effective tool to enhance the clustering of cell population...
متن کاملnetSmooth: Network-smoothing based imputation for single cell RNA-seq
Single cell RNA-seq (scRNA-seq) experiments suffer from a range of characteristic technical biases, such as dropouts (zero or near zero counts) and high variance. Current analysis methods rely on imputing missing values by various means of local averaging or regression, often amplifying biases inherent in the data. We present netSmooth, a network-diffusion based method that uses priors for the ...
