An accurate and robust imputation method scImpute for single-cell RNA-seq data

Despite being widely performed in exploring cell heterogeneity and gene expression stochasticity, single cell RNA-seq analysis is complicated by excess zero counts (dropouts). Here, Li and Li develop scImpute for statistical imputation of dropouts in scRNA-seq data.
