Single-cell data are being generated at an accelerating pace. How best to project data across single-cell atlases is an open problem. We developed a boosted learner that overcomes the greatest challenge with status quo classifiers: low sensitivity, especially when dealing with rare cell types. By comparing novel and published data from distinct scRNA-seq modalities that were acquired from the same tissues, we show that this approach preserves cell-type labels when mapping across diverse platforms.

单细胞数据正在以前所未有的速度产生。如何最好地在单细胞图谱中投射数据是一个悬而未决的问题。我们开发了一种增强学习器，克服了现有分类器的最大挑战：低灵敏度，尤其是在处理稀有细胞类型时。通过比较来自同一组织的不同 scRNA-seq 模式的新颖和已发表的数据，我们表明，这种方法在跨多种平台映射时保留了细胞类型标签。
