Cells can be selected by setting thresholds in the Selection card on the rightusing the Select & Filter tool. Here, we will select cells based on the total count

  • Open Select & Filter under Tools on the left
  • Under Criteria, Click Pin histogram to see the distribution of counts
  • Set the Counts thresholds to 8000 and 20500

The noise reduction filter allows you to exclude genes considered background noise based on a variety of criteria. The statistics based filter is useful for focusing on a certain number or percentile of genes based on a variety of metrics, such as variance. The feature list filter allows you to filter your data set to include or exclude particular genes.

This produces a Filtered counts data node. This will be the starting point for the next stage of analysis - identifying cell types in the data using the interactive t-SNE plot.
