Read in depth

2020-09-14

We read CHISEL paper for single-cell copy number variation calling [zaccaria2020characterizing] in detail today.

2020-10-11

We read variational auto-encoder paper [kingma2013auto] in detail today, with brief disucssion on its single cell application scVI [lopez2018deep].

2021-05-17

We read three papers: RPCI [liu2021robust], Cell-ID: [cortal2021gene], scPred [alquicira2019scpred], all about linear projection of single-cell transcriptome to lower dimensional space with singular value decomposition (SVD), the implementation technique for Principal component analysis (PCA).

We also referred more details on PCA and SVD by reading the following book chapters:
