Examples and Workflows¶
- Major steps in a usual Nabo workflow are:
- scRNA-Seq data quality control
- Data normalization
- Identification of highly variable genes
- Dimensionality reduction of reference and target population into same PCA space using highly variable genes
- Creation of SNN graph for reference population by calculating the Euclidean distance between each pair of cells.
- Mapping target cells by calculating the distance between each target and reference cell using a modified Canberra metric.
- Clustering and visualization of reference graph.
- Identification of reference sub-populations with significant mapping.
- Classification of target cells as per reference clusters.
- Identification of marker genes for reference cluster and for highly mapped (by target cells) reference cells.
