What problem does it solve?
This Skill automates the identification of distinct tissue regions and spatial niches within spatial transcriptomics data, eliminating the need for manual, inconsistent parameter tuning across different clustering methods.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Automated Domain Identification: Utilizes multiple advanced algorithms (Leiden, SpaGCN, STAGATE, GraphST, BANKSY) to partition spatial transcriptomics data into biologically meaningful domains.
- Visualization & Reporting: Generates annotated spatial maps, UMAP plots, and comprehensive reports detailing domain characteristics and reproducibility.
- Use Case: A researcher has a Visium dataset and wants to identify distinct cell populations within different anatomical regions of a tumor. This Skill can automatically cluster the spatial spots into these regions, visualize them on the tissue, and provide a summary report.
