Improve scRNA-seq dataset for further analysis

I don't think you can conclude that the dataset is terrible based on that PCA. Depending on the specific protocol, each scRNA-seq dataset is going to be very different. Unlike bulk RNA-seq where all ...

Improve scRNA-seq dataset for further analysis

I usually use a minimum of 200 genes/cell for relaxed filters (500 if possible). For genes I use presence in at least 10% of the cells. A few other filters you can try are: High percentage of reads ...

How to reduce the occupied RAM when you are dealing with a very sparse matrix in a single-cell Experiment in R?

Essentially you've hit a RAM bottleneck and the calculation will slow to zero, or in this instance refuse to go forward. The way to do this normally is to parallelize the calculation across the cores ...
