Yes, you want to ensure that interesting signal contributes to the majority of the NNLS objective. You can do this two ways:
Note that it is NOT a good idea to select only variable features -- you will lose a lot of interesting information and statistical power.
Thank you for writing the blazing-fast package!
I have a more of a practical question regarding interpretation of the NMF results. So, I saw that my factor loadings are mostly dominated by mitochondrial and ribosomal genes. I have made sure that the cells are of good quality, so I am not sure how to interpret the results. It seems like the factors are picking up the highly expressed genes. Would it make sense to remove those genes prior to NMF?
Apologies in advance if I am asking on the wrong venue.
