Overview

About

Maintained by Qinglin MeiCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗Declared funder: Zhengchang Su

A novel clustering algorithm and toolkit to accurately identify various cell types using single cell RNA sequencing data from a complex tissue. This algorithm considers both local similarity and global similarity among the cells to discern the subtle differences among cells of the same type as well as larger differences among cells of different types. This algorithm uses Spearman’s rank correlations of a cell’s expression vector with those of other cells to measure its global similarity, and learns neighbour representation of a cell as its local similarity. The overall similarity of a cell to other cells is a linear combination of its global similarity and local similarity. See Mei et. al. (2021) DOI:10.1101/2021.04.12.439254 for more details.

Install

BioconductorR (source archive)pak (dev)

BiocManager::install("RCSL")

Installs the current Bioconductor release. Requires the BiocManager package.

url <- "https://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/RCSL/RCSL_0.99.95.tar.gz"
pkgFile <- "RCSL_0.99.95.tar.gz"
download.file(url, pkgFile)
install.packages(pkgFile, type = "source", repos = NULL)

This package is no longer on CRAN, so install.packages() cannot fetch it by name. This downloads the last archived source (0.99.95) and builds it locally. Install its dependencies first, and note that building from source needs the usual compiler toolchain.

if (!requireNamespace("pak", quietly = TRUE))
  install.packages("pak", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")
pak::pak("QinglinMei/RCSL")

Development version from QinglinMei/RCSL. Installs pak first if it is not already available.
