scDiagnostics
The scDiagnostics package provides diagnostic plots to assess the quality of cell type assignments from single cell gene expression profiles. The implemented functionality allows to assess the reliability of cell type annotations, investigate gene expression patterns, and explore relationships between different cell types in query and reference datasets allowing users to detect potential misalignments between reference and query datasets. The package also provides visualization capabilities for diagnostics purposes.

Coralysis is an R package featuring a multi-level integration algorithm for sensitive integration, reference-mapping, and cell-state identification in single-cell data. The multi-level integration algorithm is inspired by the process of assembling a puzzle - where one begins by grouping pieces based on low-to high-level features, such as color and shading, before looking into shape and patterns. This approach progressively blends the batch effects and separates cell types across multiple rounds of divisive clustering.
Performs unbiased cell type recognition from single-cell RNA sequencing data, by leveraging reference transcriptomic datasets of pure cell types to infer the cell of origin of each single cell independently.
A tool for unsupervised clustering and analysis of single cell RNA-Seq data.
ILoReg is a tool for identification of cell populations from scRNA-seq data. In particular, ILoReg is useful for finding cell populations with subtle transcriptomic differences. The method utilizes a self-supervised learning method, called Iteratitive Clustering Projection (ICP), to find cluster probabilities, which are used in noise reduction prior to PCA and the subsequent hierarchical clustering and t-SNE steps. Additionally, functions for differential expression analysis to find gene markers for the populations and gene expression visualization are provided.
Crumblr enables analysis of count ratio data using precision weighted linear (mixed) models. It uses an asymptotic normal approximation of the variance following the centered log ration transform (CLR) that is widely used in compositional data analysis. Crumblr provides a fast, flexible alternative to GLMs and GLMM's while retaining high power and controlling the false positive rate.
Implements R bindings to C++ code for analyzing single-cell (expression) data, mostly from various libscran libraries. Each function performs an individual step in the single-cell analysis workflow, ranging from quality control to clustering and marker detection. Additional wrappers are provided for easy construction of end-to-end workflows involving Bioconductor objects like SingleCellExperiments.
