astir - Automated cell identity from single-cell multiplexed imaging and proteomics¶
astir
is a modelling framework for the assignment of cell type across a range of single-cell technologies such as Imaging Mass Cytometry (IMC). astir
is built using pytorch and uses recognition networks for fast minibatch stochastic variational inference.
Key applications:
Automated assignment of cell type and state from highly multiplexed imaging and proteomic data
Diagnostic measures to check quality of resulting type and state inferences
Ability to map new data to cell types and states trained on existing data using recognition neural networks
A range of plotting and data loading utilities
