Psupertime: supervised pseudotime analysis for time-series single-cell RNA-seq data.

ABSTRACT:

Motivation

Improvements in single-cell RNA-seq technologies mean that studies measuring multiple experimental conditions, such as time series, have become more common. At present, few computational methods exist to infer time series-specific transcriptome changes, and such studies have therefore typically used unsupervised pseudotime methods. While these methods identify cell subpopulations and the transitions between them, they are not appropriate for identifying the genes that vary coherently along the time series. In addition, the orderings they estimate are based only on the major sources of variation in the data, which may not correspond to the processes related to the time labels.

Results

We introduce psupertime, a supervised pseudotime approach based on a regression m
