Feature selection

Morphological profile features often exhibit strong correlation structures. To remove redundant features, scmorph integrates methods that detect correlated features and removes them.

import scmorph as sm

adata = sm.datasets.rohban2017_minimal()

sm.pp.select_features(adata, method="pearson")

adata.var["qc_pass_var"].value_counts()

True     1404
False      51
Name: qc_pass_var, dtype: int64
