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
