High dimensional single-cell data is nowadays collected routinely for multiple applications in biology. Standard tools for the analysis of these data do not scale well with regard to the number of dimensions or the number of cells. To tackle these issues, we have extended and created new dimensionality reduction techniques such as A-tSNE[1] and HSNE[2,3]. We have implemented these in our integrated single-cell analysis framework Cytosplore and created new interaction methods such as CyteGuide[4] and Focus+Context for HSNE[5].
This presentation will give an overview over the Cytosplore Visual Analytics framework and highlight some of its domain applications.
