Welcome to Cell BLAST’s documentation!
Cell_BLAST is a single cell transcriptome querying tool, based on a deep generative model (currently named DIRECTi).
Cell_BLAST performs querying based on low-dimensional cell embeddings learned by a generative model, with cell-to-cell similarity estimated using the distance between their posterior distributions. Annotations like cell types can then be transferred from reference to query cells based on query hits.
