viewmastR is a R framework for genomic cell type classification using the Burn machine learning library and its modules. viewmastR is a very flexible and customizable platform for labelling cell types in your data

The main features of viewmastR are:

  • Use a blazingly fast machine learning approach to cell classification according to a reference dataset
  • Augment data for rare cell types
  • Classify single cell profiles according to a reference of bulk data

Additional features include:

  • Classification of single-cell data using bulk reference datasets
  • Super efficient bulk RNAseq deconvolution with intercept value
