Input: domain1, domain2 in form of numpy arrays/matrices, where the rows correspond to samples and columns correspond to features.
Returns: aligned domain 1, aligned domain 2 in form of numpy arrays/matrices projected on domain 1
Example use:
# Given two numpy matrices, domain1 and domain2, where the rows are cells and columns are different genomic features:
scot= SCOT(domain1, domain2)
aligned_domain1, aligned_domain2 = scot.align(k=20, e=1e-3)
#If you can't pick the parameters k and e, you can try out our unsupervised self-tuning heuristic by running:
scot= SCOT(domain1, domain2)
aligned_domain1, aligned_domain2 = scot.align(selfTune=True)
Required parameters:
- k: Number of neighbors to be used when constructing kNN graphs. Default= min(min(n_1, n_2), 50), where n_i, for i=1,2 corresponds to the number of samples in the i^th domain.
- e: Regularization constant for the entropic regularization term in entropic Gromov-Wasserstein optimal transport formulation. Default= 1e-3
Optional parameters:
- normalize= Determines whether to normalize input data ahead of alignment. True or False (boolean parameter). Default = True.
- norm= Determines what sort of normalization to run, "l2", "l1", "max", "zscore". Default="l2"
- mode: "connectivity" or "distance". Determines whether to use a connectivity graph (adjacency matrix of 1s/0s based on whether nodes are connected) or a distance graph (adjacency matrix entries weighted by distances between nodes). Default="connectivity"
- metric: Sets the metric to use while constructing nearest neighbor graphs. some possible choices are "correlation", "minkowski". "correlation" is Pearson's correlation and "minkowski" is equivalent to Euclidean distance in its default form (). Default= "correlation".
- verbose: Prints loss while optimizing the optimal transport formulation. Default=True
- XontoY: Determines the direction of barycentric projection. True or False (boolean parameter). If True, projects domain1 onto domain2. If False, projects domain2 onto domain1. Default=True.
Note: If you want to specify the marginal distributions of the input domains and not use uniform distribution, please set the attributes p and q to the distributions of your choice (for domain 1, and 2, respectively)
after initializing a SCOT class instance and before running alignment and set init_marginals=False in .align() parameters
