SC transform task performs the normalization method of R package sctransform [1]
We recommend performing sctransform normalization on single cell row count data node. Select SCTransfrom task in Normalization and scaling section on the pop-up menu to invoke the dialog (Figure 1)
By default, it will generate report on all the input features. Unchecking the Report all features, user can specify a certain number of features with highest variance in the report.
In the Advanced option, users can the click Configure to change the default settings (Figure 2)
Features for parameter estimation: Specify number of features to use in estimation of parameters, 0 means to use all input features
Center results: When set to Yes, center all the transformed features to have mean as 0
Clip results: If this is set to No, outliers might have big effect and the transformed data can be very large for some features, usually the ones with few non-zero counts. When set to Yes, the range to clip the transformed data is between -sqrt(n/30) and sqrt(n/30), n is the number of cells
Random seed: use the same random seed to reproduce the results.
Data has been log transformed with base: specify the input data is logged or not
The data in the output node is a matrix of standardized residual on all the features in all the observations, the range of the values is roughly between -4 and 4.
