KSoftImpute: KNN-based imputation

In SignacX: Cell Type Identification and Discovery from Single Cell Gene Expression Data

Description

KSoftImpute is an ultra-fast method for imputing missing gene expression values in single cell data. KSoftImpute uses k-nearest neighbors to impute the expression of each gene by the weighted average of itself and it's first-degree neighbors. Weights for imputation are determined by the number of detected genes. This method works for large data sets (>100,000 cells) in under a minute.

Usage

KSoftImpute(E, dM = NULL, genes.to.use = NULL, verbose = FALSE)

Arguments

E	A gene-by-sample count matrix (sparse matrix or matrix) with genes identified by their HUGO symbols.
dM	see ?CID.GetDistMat
genes.to.use	a character vector of genes to impute. Default is NULL.
verbose	If TRUE, code reports outputs. Default is FALSE.

Value

An expression matrix (sparse matrix) with imputed values.
