COMMOT: Screening cell-cell communication in spatial transcriptomics via collective optimal transport
lock icon

BioTuring

In this notebook, we present COMMOT (COMMunication analysis by Optimal Transport) to infer cell-cell communication (CCC) in spatial transcriptomic, a package that infers CCC by simultaneously considering numerous ligand–receptor pairs for either spatial transcriptomic data or spatially annotated scRNA-seq data equipped with spatial distances between cells estimated from paired spatial imaging data. A collective optimal transport method is developed to handle complex molecular interactions and spatial constraints. Furthermore, we introduce downstream analysis tools to infer spatial signaling directionality and genes regulated by signaling using machine learning models.

expiMap: Biologically informed deep learning to query gene programs in single-cell atlases
lock icon

BioTuring

The development of large-scale single-cell atlases has allowed describing cell states in a more detailed manner. Meanwhile, current deep leanring methods enable rapid analysis of newly generated query datasets by mapping them into reference atlases. expiMap (‘explainable programmable mapper’) Lotfollahi, Mohammad, et al. is one of the methods proposed for single-cell reference mapping. Furthermore, it incorporates prior knowledge from gene sets databases or users to analyze query data in the context of known gene programs (GPs).

PopV: the variety of cell-type transfer tools for classify cell-types
lock icon

BioTuring

PopV uses popular vote of a variety of cell-type transfer tools to classify cell-types in a query dataset based on a test dataset. Using this variety of algorithms, they compute the agreement between those algorithms and use this agreement to predict which cell-types have a high likelihood of the same cell-types observed in the reference.

MUON: multimodal omics analysis framework
lock icon

BioTuring

Advances in multi-omics have led to an explosion of multimodal datasets to address questions from basic biology to translation. While these data provide novel opportunities for discovery, they also pose management and analysis challenges, thus motivating the development of tailored computational solutions. `muon` is a Python framework for multimodal omics. It introduces multimodal data containers as `MuData` object. The package also provides state of the art methods for multi-omics data integration. `muon` allows the analysis of both unimodal omics and multimodal omics.

WOT (Waddington-OT): A software package for analyzing snapshots of developmental processes

BioTuring

Single cell RNA-seq allows us to profile the diversity of cells along a developmental time-course. However, we cannot directly observe cellular trajectories because the measurement process is destructive. Waddington-OT is designed to infer the temporal couplings of a developmental stochastic process from samples collected independently at various time-points. The temporal couplings tell us what descendants cell x from time ti would give rise to at time tj
