`Scedar` (Single-cell exploratory data analysis for RNA-Seq) is a reliable and easy-to-use Python package for efficient *quality control*, *visualization* and *clustering* of large-scale single cell RNA-seq (scRNA-seq) datasets.

## Install

Use PyPI:

`pip install scedar`

## Demo


Workflow of using `scedar` to analyze an scRNA-seq dataset with 3005 mouse brain cells and 19,972 genes generated using the STRT-Seq UMI protocol by Zeisel et al. (2015). Procedures and parameters that are not directly related to data analysis are omitted. The full version of the demo is available at [docs/notebooks/mb3k-demo.ipynb](docs/notebooks/mb3k-demo.ipynb).
