SinNLRR: a robust subspace clustering method for cell type detection by non-negative and low-rank representation
Bibliographic record
Abstract
MOTIVATION: The development of single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) provides a new perspective to study biological problems at the single-cell level. One of the key issues in scRNA-seq analysis is to resolve the heterogeneity and diversity of cells, which is to cluster the cells into several groups. However, many existing clustering methods are designed to analyze bulk RNA-seq data, it is urgent to develop the new scRNA-seq clustering methods. Moreover, the high noise in scRNA-seq data also brings a lot of challenges to computational methods. RESULTS: In this study, we propose a novel scRNA-seq cell type detection method based on similarity learning, called SinNLRR. The method is motivated by the self-expression of the cells with the same group. Specifically, we impose the non-negative and low rank structure on the similarity matrix. We apply alternating direction method of multipliers to solve the optimization problem and propose an adaptive penalty selection method to avoid the sensitivity to the parameters. The learned similarity matrix could be incorporated with spectral clustering, t-distributed stochastic neighbor embedding for visualization and Laplace score for prioritizing gene markers. In contrast to other scRNA-seq clustering methods, our method achieves more robust and accurate results on different datasets. AVAILABILITY AND IMPLEMENTATION: Our MATLAB implementation of SinNLRR is available at, https://github.com/zrq0123/SinNLRR. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Supplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
