Fig. 1From: Explainable multiview framework for dissecting spatial relationships from highly multiplexed dataMISTy: An explainable multiview framework for modeling intercellular interactions from highly multiplexed spatial data. MISTy models marker relationships coming from different spatial views: intrinsic (intraview), local niche view (juxtaview), the broader, tissue view (paraview), or others, based directly on marker expressions or derived typology or functional characterizations of the data. At output, A MISTy extracts information about the contribution of different views to the expression of markers in each spatial unit. B MISTy also estimates the markers’ interactions coming from each view that explains those contributions. C These results can be described qualitatively as communities of interacting markers for each viewBack to article page
