Abstract
The advent of single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) has revolutionized transcriptomic research by enabling the exploration of gene expression at an individual cell level. This advancement sheds light on how cells differentiate and evolve over time. Effectively classification cell types within scRNA-seq datasets are essential for understanding the intricate cell compositions within tissues and elucidating the origins of various diseases. Challenges persist in the field, emphasizing the need for precise categorization across diverse datasets, addressing aggregated cell data, and managing the complexity of high-dimensional data spaces. XgCPred is a novel approach combining XGBoost with convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to provide cell type classification with better accuracy in single-cell RNA-seq data. This combo reveals how well CNNs can detect spatial hierarchy in gene expression images and how XGBoost performs with large volumes of data. XgCPred utilizes an imaging representation of gene expression that is based on the hierarchical organization of genes found in the KEGG BRITE database. Rigorous testing of XgCPred across multiple scRNA-seq datasets, each presenting unique challenges such as varying cell counts, gene expression diversity, and cellular heterogeneity, has demonstrated its superiority compared to earlier methods. The algorithm shows remarkable accuracy and precision in cell type annotation, achieving near-perfect classification scores in some cases. These results underscore its capability to effectively manage data variability. XgCPred distinguishes itself through its dependable and accurate cell type classification across a range of scRNA-seq datasets. Its effectiveness stems from sophisticated data handling and its ability to adapt to the complexities inherent in scRNA-seq data. XgCPred delivers reliable cell annotations essential for further biological analysis and research, marking a significant advancement in genomic studies. With scRNA-seq datasets growing in size and complexity, XgCPred offers a scalable and potent solution for cell type identification, potentially enhancing our understanding of cellular biology and aiding in the precise detection of diseases. XgCPred is a useful tool in genomic research and tailored therapy because it solves current constraints on computing efficiency and generalizability.
