# scReClassify <img src='img/scReClassify_sticker.png' align="right" height="138.5" />
`scReClassify` is a post hoc cell type classification of single-cell
RNA-sequencing data. Using semi-supervised learning algorithm,
adaSampling, to correct cell type annotation from noise.
# Getting started

### Installation
#### Bioconductor
```r
if (!requireNamespace("BiocManager", quietly = TRUE))
install.packages("BiocManager")
BiocManager::install("scReClassify")
```
#### GitHub

# Usage
![alt text](https://github.com/SydneyBioX/scReClassify/raw/master/img/scReClassify.jpg)
Current version of this package is implemented to run with `svm` and `randomForest` classifiers.
## Load data
``` r
data(gse87795_subset_sce)
dat <- gse87795_subset_sce
cellTypes <- gse87795_subset_sce$cellTypes
# number of clusters
nCs <- length(table(cellTypes))
# This demo dataset is already pre-processed
dim(dat)
```
## Part A. scReClassify (Demonstration)
### Dimension reduction
``` r
reducedDim(dat, "matPCs") = matPCs(dat, assay = "logNorm", 0.7)
```
### Synthetic noise (Demonstration purpose)
Here in this example, we will synthetically generate varying degree of noise in sample labels.
``` r
lab <- cellTypes
set.seed(1)
noisyCls <- function(dat, rho, cls.truth){
cls.noisy <- cls.truth
names(cls.noisy) <- colnames(dat)
for(i in seq_len(length(table(cls.noisy)))) {
# class label starts from 0
if (i != length(table(cls.noisy))) {
cls.noisy[sample(which(cls.truth == names(table(cls.noisy))[i]), floor(sum(cls.truth == names(table(cls.noisy))[i]) * rho))] <- names(table(cls.noisy))[i+1]
} else {
cls.noisy[sample(which(cls.truth == names(table(cls.noisy))[i]), floor(sum(cls.truth == names(table(cls.noisy))[i]) * rho))] <- names(table(cls.noisy))[1]
}
}
print(sum(cls.truth != cls.noisy))
return(cls.noisy)
}
cls.noisy01 <- noisyCls(t(reducedDim(dat, "matPCs")), rho=0.1, lab)
cls.noisy02 <- noisyCls(t(reducedDim(dat, "matPCs")), rho=0.2, lab)
cls.noisy03 <- noisyCls(t(reducedDim(dat, "matPCs")), rho=0.3, lab)
cls.noisy04 <- noisyCls(t(reducedDim(dat, "matPCs")), rho=0.4, lab)
cls.noisy05 <- noisyCls(t(reducedDim(dat, "matPCs")), rho=0.5, lab)
```
### Use scReClassify to correct mislabeled cell types.
Here in this example, we will only use `Support Vector machine (svm)` as base classifier.
