Computational Models
Last Updated: January 27, 2025
Three computational models are available for analyzing your single-cell RNA-seq data.
Available Models
PCA (Principal Component Analysis)
- Linear method: Captures major sources of variation
- Batch correction: Harmony integration available
- Speed: Fastest processing time
- Memory: Lowest resource requirements
- Interpretability: Component loadings show gene contributions
scVI (Single-cell Variational Inference)
- Generative model: Probabilistic framework for single-cell data
- Census-trained: Uses pre-trained models from reference data
- Classification: Supports cell type prediction
- Organisms: Human and mouse only
TranscriptFormer
- Transformer architecture: Attention-based gene interaction modeling
- Model variants: Sapiens (human), Exemplar (cross-species), Metazoa (broad)
- Classification: Supports cell type prediction
- Resources: Benefits from GPU acceleration
