InferCNV is used to explore tumor single cell RNA-Seq data to identify evidence for somatic large-scale chromosomal copy number alterations, such as gains or deletions of entire chromosomes or large segments of chromosomes. This is done by exploring expression intensity of genes across positions of tumor genome in comparison to a set of reference 'normal' cells. A heatmap is generated illustrating the relative expression intensities across each chromosome, and it often becomes readily apparent as to which regions of the tumor genome are over-abundant or less-abundant as compared to that of normal cells.
**Infercnvpy** is a scalable python library to infer copy number variation (CNV) events from single cell transcriptomics data. It is heavliy inspired by InferCNV, but plays nicely with scanpy and is much more scalable.

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

scVI-tools (single-cell variational inference tools) is a package for end-to-end analysis of single-cell omics data primarily developed and maintained by the Yosef Lab at UC Berkeley. scvi-tools has two components
- Interface for easy use of a range of probabilistic models for single-cell omics (e.g., scVI, scANVI, totalVI).
- Tools to build new probabilistic models, which are powered by PyTorch, PyTorch Lightning, and Pyro.

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.

Single-cell sequencing is an increasingly used technology and has promising applications in basic research and clinical translations. However, genotyping methods developed for bulk sequencing data have not been well adapted for single-cell data. In this notebook, we introduce cellSNP-lite for genotyping in single-cell sequencing data for both droplet and well-based platforms.
Cellsnp-lite is a C/C++ tool for efficient genotyping bi-allelic SNPs on single cells. You can use cellsnp-lite after read alignment to obtain the snp x cell pileup UMI or read count matrices for each alleles of given or detected SNPs.
cellSNP-lite aims to pileup the expressed alleles in single-cell or bulk RNA-seq data, which can be directly used for donor deconvolution in multiplexed single-cell RNA-seq data, particularly with vireo, which assigns cells to donors and detects doublets, even without genotyping reference.
Cellsnp-lite has following features:
- Wide applicability: cellsnp-lite can take data from various omics as input, including RNA-seq, DNA-seq, ATAC-seq, either in bulk or single cells.
- Simplified user interface that supports parallel computing, cell barcode and UMI tags.
- High efficiency in terms of running speed and memory usage with highly concordant results compared to existing methods.
