Deep learning approaches for single-cell gene expression data analysis

Dr. Vinod PK, Assistant Professor, Centre for Computational Natural Sciences, IIIT Hyderabad

1. Implementation of Sparse Autoencoders & Adversarial Variational Autoencoders for dimensionality reduction of single-cell RNA seq datasets.
2. Used Ensemble Learning for clustering the cells and benchmarking the results against gold standard clusterings.
3. Biological interpretation of results through studying the network architecture and cell-type annotation of different clusters.
