It takes advantage of the fact that genes in a scRNAseq study often can be naturally classified into two sets: a control set of genes that are free of effects of the predictor variables and a target set of genes that are of primary interest. By modeling the two sets of genes jointly using the partial least squares regression, scPLS is capable of making full use of the data to improve the inference of confounding effects. https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-017-13665-w
      • TASC - [C++, python] - To account for cell-to-cell technical differences, we propose a statistical framework, TASC (Toolkit for Analysis of Single Cell RNA-seq), an empirical Bayes approach to reliably model the cell-specific dropout rates and amplification bias by use of external RNA spike-ins. TASC incorporates the technical parameters, which reflect cell-to-cell batch effects, into a hierarchical mixture model to estimate the biological variance of a gene and detect differentially expressed genes. More importantly, TASC is able to adjust for covariates to further eliminate confounding that may originate from cell size and cell cycle differences.

A Shiny web applet (and R-package) that helps annotating the cluster identities in single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) experiments.

In addition to 7 reference datasets implemented in CIPR (2 from mouse and 5 from human), users can upload custom high-throughput reference data for specialized studies. The CIPR pipeline can be further tailored to different analytical contexts by excluding irrelevant reference subsets and low-variance reference genes from the analysis. The manuscript describing CIPR and comparing its performance against other similar software was published in [BMC Bioinformatics](https://bmcbioinformatics.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s12859-020-3538-2).
