How can I solve this issue?

Closed this issue · 7 comments

Hi, I am trying to run scRNA data on Ecotyper recently. However, I encountered some issues that I can't solve, thus wanted to seek your help.

I dont' know how to solve it, it didn't show any useful information about the error message as following:

(base) root@interactive52680:/home/chenxiaolin/ecotyper-master# Rscript EcoTyper_recovery_scRNA.R -d Carcinoma -m ecotyper_scRNA/GSE176078.expr.txt -a ecotyper_scRNA/GSE176078.anno.txt -o RecoveryOutput -s 60
The annotation file contains column 'Sample', and more than half of the cell types are present in the recovery dataset. Will perform ecotype recovery.

Thank you again for your attention. I am really appreciated for your help.

This seems to be related to a memory issue, for example if you are running EcoTyper in an interactive session on a server/cluster. Try allocating more memory, especially when working with scRNA-seq data.

How many cells do you have? I would try downsampling the file prior to running EcoTyper.

How big is your scRNA-seq dataset? How many cells? You tried downsampling your input file prior to running EcoTyper? If so there could be an issue with the formatting of your input file.
