“…We show that Cytopath successfully recovers known differentiation processes in all datasets with high accuracy. Furthermore, we compare the performance of Cytopath to the best trajectory inference models for each topology [Saelens et al, 2019], which are Slingshot [Street et al, 2018] for tree-like topology, Angle [Saelens et al, 2019] for cell cycle, PAGA (directionality enabled by velocity pseudotime) [Wolf et al, 2019, Bergen et al, 2020 for graph models. We also include comparison to Monocle3 [Cao et al, 2019] as well as two approaches accounting for RNA velocity information, Ve-Tra [Weng et al, 2021] and Cellpath .…”
