Severo.jl

A software package for analysis and exploration of single-cell RNA-seq datasets

Introduction

Severo.jl was created for the scalable analysis of single-cell RNA-seq datasets: the implementation is designed to minimize hardware resources such as memory while maximizing performance through parallelism and hardware optimizations.

Severo.jl gives an order of magnitude speedup when compared to other existing packages such as Seurat and Scanpy:

The package provides a toolbox of different algorithms and statistical methods from which the user can pick and choose.
