Force assignment to all cells?

igrabski opened this issue · 2 comments

Hi all,

I have a question about classifying cells -- is it possible to turn off the functionality to flag some cells as "unassigned," or in other words, to force all cells to be assigned a cell-type label? I see that the sensitivity with which a cell is marked unassigned can be toggled through the rank_prob_ratio parameter, but it seems that this parameter must always be greater than 1, whereas all cells would only be forced to be assigned a label if this parameter were equal to 1 (if I understand it correctly). Please let me know!

Thanks so much.

Hello, Apologies for the delay. Unfortunately, at this time there isn't a way to do this - the idea being that if the rank_prob_ratio was equal to 1, then there would be multiple cell types that were equally likely to be assigned.

I'm going to go ahead an close, reopen if you have further issues
