cellrank.estimators.GPCCA

class cellrank.estimators.GPCCA(object, **kwargs)[source]

Generalized Perron Cluster Cluster Analysis (GPCCA) [Reuter et al., 2019, Reuter et al., 2018].

See also

This is our main and recommended estimator implemented in pyGPCCA . Use it to compute macrostates, automatically and semi-automatically classify these as initial, intermediate and terminal states, compute fate probabilities towards macrostates, uncover driver genes, and much more. To compute and classify macrostates, we run the GPCCA algorithm under the hood, which returns a soft assignment of cells to macrostates, as well as a coarse-grained transition matrix among the set of macrostates [Reuter et al., 2019, Reuter et al., 2018]. This estimator allows you to inject prior knowledge where available to guide the identification of initial, intermediate and terminal states.

Parameters:

  • object (Union[str, bool, ndarray, spmatrix, AnnData, KernelExpression]) –

    Can be one of the following types:

    • AnnData - annotated data object.

    • spmatrix, ndarray - row-normalized transition matrix.

    • KernelExpression - kernel expression.

    • str - key in obsp where the transition matrix is stored and adata must be provided in this case.

    • bool - directionality of the transition matrix that will be used to infer its storage location. If None, the directionality will be determined automatically and adata must be provided in this case.

  • kwargs (Any) – Keyword arguments for the PrecomputedKernel.

In our context, states correspond to cells, in particular, absorbing states correspond to cells in terminal_states.
