From: Celloscope: a probabilistic model for marker-gene-driven cell type deconvolution in spatial transcriptomics data

Hyperparameters

\(\alpha\)

Adjustment for the average number of cell types present in a spot

a

Rate parameter for cell types present in a spot

b

Scale parameter for cell types present in a spot

\(a_0\)

Rate parameter for cell types absent in a spot

\(b_0\)

Scale parameter for cell types present in a spot

\(l_s\)

Estimate for the total number of cells in a spot

\(\sigma\)
