Abstract

Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) allows the creation of large collections of individual cells transcriptome. Unsupervised clustering is an essential element for the analysis of these data, and it represents the initial step for the identification of different cell types to investigate the cell subpopulation organization of a sample. In this chapter, we describe how to approach the clustering of single-cell RNAseq transcriptomics data using various clustering tools, and we provide some information on the limitations affecting the clustering procedure.

Keywords: Griph; Lovain modularity; SHARP; Seurat; Single cell transcriptomics; Unsupervised clustering.
