Fig. 3From: BASS: multi-scale and multi-sample analysis enables accurate cell type clustering and spatial domain detection in spatial transcriptomic studiesComparison of different methods for spatial domain detection and cell type clustering in simulations with multiple tissue sections. A Boxplots of ARI show the accuracy of BASS for spatial domain detection (y-axis) in the presence of 1, 2, 5, or 10 tissue sections (x-axis). B Line plots display the median ARI by different methods for cell type clustering across 50 simulation replicates (y-axis) in the presence of 1, 2, 5, or 10 tissue sections (x-axis). Compared methods for cell type clustering include BASS, Seurat, and SC3. C Barplots show the median RMSE between the estimated cell type compositions and the true compositions across 50 simulation replicates (y-axis) in the presence of 1, 2, 5, or 10 tissue sections (x-axis). Simulations were conducted under Scenario I, Scenario II, Scenario III, and Scenario IV, with the simulation parameters set as the baseline setting: the number of genes (nGenes) = 200, the proportion of genes that were differentially expressed in each cell type versus the others (de. prob) = 0.2, and the DE strength (de. facloc) = 1.1Back to article page
