Associated technological and biological problems such as sparsity of the data and stochasticity of gene expression provide fundamental challenges for rigorous subpopulation identification. Random Matrix Theory (RMT) allows to deal with those challenges in a systematic way thanks to the universality properties at the eigenvalue and eigenvector levels . Synergetic use with machine learning algorithms provides a unique avenue to distinguish single-cell heterogeneous subpopulations. I will present an introduction to the applications of RMT in single-cell biology and an application to construct a cell atlas of the human and mouse prostate epithelium |
