A multicenter study benchmarking single-cell RNA sequencing technologies using reference samples
Open accessPublished version of a preprint
Abstract
Comparing diverse single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) datasets generated by different technologies and in different laboratories remains a major challenge. Here we address the need for guidance in choosing algorithms leading to accurate biological interpretations of varied data types acquired with different platforms. Using two well-characterized cellular reference samples (breast cancer cells and B cells), captured either separately or in mixtures, we compared different scRNA-seq platforms and several preprocessing, normalization and batch-effect correction methods at multiple centers. Although preprocessing and normalization contributed to variability in gene detection and cell classification, batch-effect correction was by far the most important factor in correctly classifying the cells. Moreover, scRNA-seq dataset characteristics (for example, sample and cellular heterogeneity and platform used) were critical in determining the optimal bioinformatic method. However, reproducibility across centers and platforms was high when appropriate bioinformatic methods were applied. Our findings offer practical guidance for optimizing platform and software selection when designing an scRNA-seq study.

Recent benchmark studies indicate that for simpler integration problems with low biological complexity and small batch effects, linear methods outperform nonlinear methods, while for complicated integration tasks with large biological complexity and bigger batch effects, nonlinear methods such as scVI/scanVI outperform others.
“Recent benchmark studies indicate that for simpler integration problems with relatively low biological complexity and relatively small batch effects in scRNA-Seq datasets, linear methods outperform nonlinear, more complex methods136,137, while for complicated integration tasks with large biological complexity and bigger batch effects, nonlinear methods such as scVI/scanVI outperform others138.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
