MCProj: metacell projection for interpretable and quantitative use of transcriptional atlases
Abstract We describe MCProj—an algorithm for analyzing query scRNA-seq data by projections over reference single-cell atlases. We represent the reference as a manifold of annotated metacell gene expression distributions. We then interpret query metacells as mixtures of atlas distributions while corr...
