Abstract
Single-cell clustering is an important part of analyzing single-cell RNA-sequencing data. However, the accuracy and robustness of existing methods are disturbed by noise. One promising approach for addressing this challenge is integrating pathway information, which can alleviate noise and improve performance. In this work, we studied the impact on accuracy and robustness of existing single-cell clustering methods by integrating pathways. We collected 10 state-of-the-art single-cell clustering methods, 26 scRNA-seq datasets and four pathway databases, combined the AUCell method and the similarity network fusion to integrate pathway data and scRNA-seq data, and introduced three accuracy indicators, three noise generation strategies and robustness indicators. Experiments on this framework showed that integrating pathways can significantly improve the accuracy and robustness of most single-cell clustering methods.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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 it
