Issue with cell type specific genes when performing scRNAseq discovery #63

Closed dkwon6 closed 1 year ago

dkwon6 commented 1 year ago

I have been trying to run EcoTyper scRNAseq discovery on a scRNAseq dataset. When I set the config Filter genes to "cell type specific", I get the following error:

Step 2 (cell state discovery on correrlation matrices): Calculating correlation matrices... Warning message: There are more than 2500 single cells available for cell type 'Epithelial.cells'. Subsampling to 2500 cells.

Filtering 'CD4.Naive' profiles for cell type specific genes... ---> Checking zero-variance data... ---> Total number of variables: 2500 ---> WARNING: 2500 variables found with zero variance ---> Maximum number of splits: floor(n/2) = 0 ---> WARNING: number of splits nSplit > 0 ---> WARNING: using maximum number of splits: nSplit = 0 Error in fastCor(scaled_data) : invalid nSplit: 0 Execution halted Error in RunJobQueue() : EcoTyper failed. Please check the error message above! Execution halted

However, when I manually set the Filter genes to a number (e.g. I've done 1000 and 2000 in my analyses), it runs without any issues.

I'd be happy to email an anonymized subsetted scRNAseq data if needed.

Thanks

Hello,

Thanks for your interest in EcoTyper. Would it be possible to send us a reproducible example at ecotyper.stanford@gmail.com?

Best, The EcoTyper team
