scICE: enhancing clustering reliability and efficiency of scRNA-seq data with multi-cluster label consistency evaluation by Hyun Kim, Issac Park, Jong-Eun Park, Jong Kyoung Kim, Minseok Seo, Jae Kyoung Kim

“…Despite efforts to obtain reliable and consensus clustering, existing methods cannot be applied to large scRNA-seq datasets due to high computational costs. Here, we develop the single-cell Inconsistency Clustering Estimator (scICE) to evaluate clustering consistency and provide consistent clustering results, achieving up to a 30-fold improvement in speed compared to conventional consensus clustering-based methods, such as multiK and chooseR. …”
