scMerge
Bioc currentscMerge: Merging multiple batches of scRNA-seq data
Release Lineage
Entered 3.9 · May 3, 2019
Current · Requires R 4.6
Description
Like all gene expression data, single-cell data suffers from batch effects and other unwanted variations that makes accurate biological interpretations difficult. The scMerge method leverages factor analysis, stably expressed genes (SEGs) and (pseudo-) replicates to remove unwanted variations and merge multiple single-cell data. This package contains all the necessary functions in the scMerge pipeline, including the identification of SEGs, replication-identification methods, and merging of single-cell data.
