报告内容:

Recent breakthrough of sequencing technologies brings about many challenges to statistical analysis. In this talk, I will be talking about two topics about statistical analysis of sequencing data.

In the first part, I will talk about imputation of single cell RNA-seq (scRNA-seq) dropout. scRNA-seq often fails to capture expressed genes, leading to the prominent dropout problem. These dropouts cause many problems in down-stream analysis, such as significant increase of noises, power loss in differential expression analysis and obscuring of gene-to-gene or cell-to-cell relationship. Imputation of these dropout values can be beneficial in scRNA-seq data analysis. I will discuss a method called scRMD based on robust matrix decomposition for dropout imputation of scRNA-seq.

In the second part, I will talk about copy number variation (CNV) detection in bacterial genomes. CNV, consisting of gains or losses of DNA segments, is an important class of genomic variations. The major strategy for detecting CNVs is based on the read depth. We found that in bacterial genomes, read depth is severely influenced by a bias factor which we termed as replication bias. We developed a CNV detection methods called CNV-BAC that can properly normalize such biases and can accurately detect CNVs in bacterial genomes.
