Book Chapter Description

Normalization is an important step in the analysis of single-cell RNA-seq data. While no single method outperforms all others in all datasets, the choice of normalization can have profound impact on the results. Data-driven metrics can be used to rank normalization methods and select the best performers. Here, we show how to use R/Bioconductor to calculate normalization factors, apply them to compute normalized data, and compare several normalization approaches. Finally, we briefly show how to perform downstream analysis steps on the normalized data.
