Spatial cell-type inter-correlation by density in R


Bioconductor version: Development (3.24)

scider is an user-friendly R package providing functions to model the global density of cells in a slide of spatial transcriptomics data. All functions in the package are built based on the SpatialExperiment object, allowing integration into various spatial transcriptomics-related packages from Bioconductor. After modelling density, the package allows for several downstream analysis, including colocalization analysis, boundary detection analysis and differential density analysis.
