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.

Geneformer: a deep learning model for exploring gene networks
lock icon

BioTuring

Geneformer is a foundation transformer model pretrained on a large-scale corpus of ~30 million single cell transcriptomes to enable context-aware predictions in settings with limited data in network biology. Here, we will demonstrate a basic workflow to work with ***Geneformer*** models. These notebooks include the instruction to: 1. Prepare input datasets 2. Finetune Geneformer model to perform specific task 3. Using finetuning models for cell classification and gene classification application
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).

DoubletFinder: Doublet detection in single-cell RNA sequencing data using artificial nearest neighbors
lock icon

BioTuring

Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) data often encountered technical artifacts called "doublets" which are two cells that are sequenced under the same cellular barcode. Doublets formed from different cell types or states are called heterotypic and homotypic otherwise. These factors constrain cell throughput and may result in misleading biological interpretations. DoubletFinder (McGinnis, Murrow, and Gartner 2019) is one of the methods proposed for doublet detection. In this notebook, we will illustrate an example workflow of DoubletFinder. We use a 10x Genomics dataset which captures peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from a healthy donor stained with a panel of 31 TotalSeq™-B antibodies (BioLegend).

BayesPrism: Cell type and gene expression deconvolution for bulk RNA-seq data

BioTuring

Reconstructing cell type compositions and their gene expression from bulk RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) datasets is an ongoing challenge in cancer research. BayesPrism (Chu, T., Wang, Z., Pe’er, D. et al., 2022) is a Bayesian method used to predict cellular composition and gene expression in individual cell types from bulk RNA-seq datasets, with scRNA-seq as references. This notebook illustrates an example workflow for bulk RNA-seq deconvolution using BayesPrism. The notebook content is inspired by BayesPrism's vignette and modified to demonstrate how the tool works on BioTuring's platform.
