bbknnR

Use batch balanced KNN (BBKNN) in R

Introduction

BBKNN is a fast and intuitive batch effect removal tool for single-cell data. It is originally used in the scanpy workflow, and now can be used with Seurat seamlessly.

System requirements

bbknnR has been tested on R versions >= 4.1. Please consult the DESCRIPTION file for more details on required R packages. bbknnR has been tested on Linux platforms

To use the full features of bbknnR, you also need to install the bbknn python package:

pip install bbknn

Installation

bbknnR has been released to CRAN:

install.packages("bbknnR")

or can be installed from github:

devtools::install_github("ycli1995/bbknnR")

Quick start

library(bbknnR)
library(Seurat)
data("panc8_small")
panc8_small <- RunBBKNN(panc8_small, batch_key = "tech")

Release

2.0.1

• Add k_build_nndescent = 30 parameter to match the implementation of python bbknn.

2.0.0

• Remove reticulate dependency. Now use kNN algorithms provided by RcppAnnoy and rnndescent
• Add return.umap.model for RunBBKNN.Seurat
• Improvements for testthat

1.1.0

• Compatibility with Seurat v5
• Improvements for documentation and verbose.

1.0.2

• Explicit import of get_dummies.() from tidytable
• Fix a bug when pass only one batch_key to RidgeRegression()

1.0.1

• Import public function similarity_graph() from uwot==0.1.14 in compute_connectivities_umap() to follow the CRAN policy

1.0.0

• Initially released to CRAN
