ATAC components

[SarahOuologuem]

Hi,

missing ATAC components include:

• [ ] ATAC-specific QC metrics (TSS, nucleosome_signal,...) see https://www.sc-best-practices.org/chromatin_accessibility/quality_control.html#calculating-qc-metrics and https://stuartlab.org/signac/articles/pbmc_vignette.html#computing-qc-metrics

• [ ] scATAC doublet detection tool, e.g. AMULET or scDblFinder. see: https://www.sc-best-practices.org/chromatin_accessibility/quality_control.html#doublet-detection

• [ ] Binarize peak count matrix

• [ ] TF-IDF normalization

• [ ] HVF selection

• [x] LSI as dimensionality reduction

Thank you, it makes sense! What about GRN inference? From this page: https://www.sc-best-practices.org/chromatin_accessibility/gene_regulatory_networks_atac.html

I think it's nice! But as far as I see, that's for the multimodal case of RNA+ATAC. I would say, if we want to start with the unimodal case, then that's for later. I can start with the LSI component

thanks @SarahOuologuem for working on LSI! please check @DriesSchaumont's last update on the "setup" component that includes PCA, umap and Neighbours, https://github.com/openpipelines-bio/openpipeline/pull/396 you would need to add LSI as an additional dimred and test that when the component is called with one of the 2 dimreds or both, the outputs are consistent.

I'll take QC metrics and doublet detection :)
