Table 4 Clustering evaluation results. The NMI, AMI, and ARI scores are the cell type clustering results using SnapATAC software. “Real-input data” refers to the clustering results using the input real scATAC-seq data. Metrics for simATAC’s simulated bin-by-cell matrices for different noise levels are also compared presented for each of the Buenrostro2018, Cusanovich2018, and PBMCs datasets
