scNPM - Single-Cell Network Propensity Matching
Estimates and compares heterogeneous gene
conditional-dependence networks from single-cell expression
data. A latent Gaussian mixture and probit observation
mechanism represent cellular heterogeneity and zero
observations. Protein interaction information supplies
edge-specific prior weights, while network propensity matching
links cell clusters across conditions. Staged inference fixes
correspondence after adaptation and jointly models matched
network edges with a four-state spike-and-slab prior for
posterior group and directional differential edge selection.
Functions assess balance, record criterion diagnostics, and
visualize within-condition and differential networks.
