Geneformer: a deep learning model for exploring gene networks
lock icon

BioTuring

Geneformer is a foundation transformer model pretrained on a large-scale corpus of ~30 million single cell transcriptomes to enable context-aware predictions in settings with limited data in network biology. Here, we will demonstrate a basic workflow to work with ***Geneformer*** models. These notebooks include the instruction to: 1. Prepare input datasets 2. Finetune Geneformer model to perform specific task 3. Using finetuning models for cell classification and gene classification application
NicheNet: modeling intercellular communication by linking ligands to target genes
lock icon

BioTuring

Computational methods that model how the gene expression of a cell is influenced by interacting cells are lacking. We present NicheNet, a method that predicts ligand–target links between interacting cells by combining their expression data with prior knowledge of signaling and gene regulatory networks. We applied NicheNet to the tumor and immune cell microenvironment data and demonstrated that NicheNet can infer active ligands and their gene regulatory effects on interacting cells.

COMMOT: Screening cell-cell communication in spatial transcriptomics via collective optimal transport
lock icon

BioTuring

In this notebook, we present COMMOT (COMMunication analysis by Optimal Transport) to infer cell-cell communication (CCC) in spatial transcriptomic, a package that infers CCC by simultaneously considering numerous ligand–receptor pairs for either spatial transcriptomic data or spatially annotated scRNA-seq data equipped with spatial distances between cells estimated from paired spatial imaging data. A collective optimal transport method is developed to handle complex molecular interactions and spatial constraints. Furthermore, we introduce downstream analysis tools to infer spatial signaling directionality and genes regulated by signaling using machine learning models.

ADImpute: Adaptive Dropout Imputer
lock icon

BioTuring

Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) protocols often face challenges in measuring the expression of all genes within a cell due to various factors, such as technical noise, the sensitivity of scRNA-seq techniques, or sample quality. This limitation gives rise to a need for the prediction of unmeasured gene expression values (also known as dropout imputation) from scRNA-seq data. ADImpute (Leote A, 2023) is an R package combining several dropout imputation methods, including two existing methods (DrImpute, SAVER), two novel implementations: Network, a gene regulatory network-based approach using gene-gene relationships learned from external data, and Baseline, a method corresponding to a sample-wide average.. This notebook is to illustrate an example workflow of ADImpute on sample datasets loaded from the package. The notebook content is inspired from ADImpute's vignette and modified to demonstrate how the tool works on BioTuring's platform.
