Evaluation results in the human heart dataset. a Spatial cell type annotation result of ST data of sample 9 in the human heart dataset. Color indicates the spot’s cell type. b The box plot of tools’ average distance enrichment scores (DES) evaluated using all samples (sample 8, sample 9, sample 10) in the human heart dataset, sorted by the median DES. c The box plots of tools’ average relative accuracy metrics (F1 score, precision, recall) evaluated using all samples (sample 8, sample 9, sample 10) in the human heart dataset, all sorted by the median F1 score. d The heatmap shows the average common interaction number between each tool’s result per cell type in the sample 9. Color displays the interaction number. The bar plot on the top shows the average interaction number predicted by each tool per cell type. The actual number is labeled on the top of each bar. e The dot plot of top 10 most common interactions among all tools in the sample 9, sorted by interaction’s common count. The dot size indicates the top rank percentage of the interaction in corresponding tool’s result. The dot color reflects interaction’s spatial distance tendency in the sample 9. The CCI tools are grouped by their model types
