Abstract
En 中文
Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) is a new technology different from previous sequencing methods that measure the average expression level for each gene across a large population of cells. Thus, new computational methods are required to reveal cell types among cell populations. We present a clustering ensemble algorithm using optimized multiobjective particle (CEMP). It is featured with several mechanisms: 1) A multi-subspace projection method for mapping the original data to low-dimensional subspaces is applied in order to detect complex data structure at both gene level and sample level. 2) The basic partition module in different subspaces is utilized to generate clustering solutions. 3) A transforming representation between clusters and particles is used to bridge the gap between the discrete clustering ensemble optimization problemand the continuous multiobjective optimization algorithm. 4) We propose a clustering ensemble optimization. To guide the multiobjective ensemble optimization process, three cluster metrics are embedded into CEMPas objective functions in which the final clustering will be dynamically evaluated. Experiments on 9 real scRNA-seq datasets indicated that CEMP had superior performance over several other clustering algorithms in clustering accuracy and robustness. The case study conducted on mouse neuronal cells identified main cell types and cell subtypes successfully.
