Abstract:Autoencoders are the backbones of many imputation methods that aim to relieve the sparsity issue in single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) data. The imputation performance of an autoencoder relies on both the neural network architecture and the hyperparameter choice. So far, literature in the single-cell field lacks a formal discussion on how to design the neural network and choose the hyperparameters. Here, we conducted an empirical study to answer this question. Our study used many real and simulated scRNA-s… Show more
