clustifyr: an R package for automated single-cell RNA sequencing cluster classification
Open accessAbstract
ABSTRACT Background In single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) analysis, assignment of likely cell types remains a time-consuming, error-prone, and biased process. Current packages for identity assignment use limited types of reference data, and often have rigid data structure requirements. As such, a more flexible tool, capable of handling multiple types of reference data and data structures, would be beneficial. Findings To address difficulties in cluster identity assignment, we developed the clustifyr R package. The package leverages external datasets, including gene expression profiles from scRNA-seq, bulk RNA-seq, microarray expression data, and/or signature gene lists, to assign likely cell types. We benchmark various parameters of a correlation-based approach, and also implement a variety of gene list enrichment methods. By providing tools for exploratory data analysis, we demonstrate the feasibility of a simple and effective data-driven approach for cell type assignment in scRNA-seq cell clusters. Conclusions clustifyr is a lightweight and effective cell type assignment tool developed for compatibility with various scRNA-seq analysis workflows. clustifyr is publicly available at https://github.com/rnabioco/clustifyr

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.
