Dependency of SVG statistics on gene expression level. a An example showing the positive correlation between SVG statistics reported from SPARK-X and mean gene expression across cells in the “Wu et al., Visium D2” dataset [14]. b Heatmap summarizing Spearman’s correlation of SVG statistics reported by each method and the mean gene expression in each dataset. The rows are ordered from the highest to lowest average dependency. c Boxplot of Spearman’s correlation of SVG statistics reported by each method and the mean gene expression across the spatial transcriptomics datasets
