ABSTRACT
The advance in single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) sheds light on cell-specific transcriptomic studies of cell developments, complex diseases and cancers. Nevertheless, scRNA-seq techniques suffer from 'dropout' events, and imputation tools are proposed to address the sparsity. Here, rather than imputation, we propose a tool, SMURF, to extract the low-dimensional embeddings from cells and genes utilizing matrix factorization with a mixture of Poisson-Gamma divergent as objective while preserving self-consistency. SMURF exhibits feasible cell subpopulation discovery efficacy with obtained cell embeddings on replicated in silico and eight web lab scRNA datasets with ground truth cell types. Furthermore, SMURF can reduce the cell embedding to a 1D-oval space to recover the time course of cell cycle. SMURF can also serve as an imputation tool; the in silico data assessment shows that SMURF parades the most robust gene expression recovery power with low root mean square error and high Pearson correlation. Moreover, SMURF recovers the gene distribution for the WM989 Drop-seq data. SMURF is available at https//github.com/deepomicslab/SMURF.
