Scanorama integration method.

Wrapper around the Scanorama method [HBB19] for efficient integration of heterogeneous single-cell transcriptomes.

Methods

ScanoramaMethod.fit()

Fit Scanorama - no explicit fitting needed.

ScanoramaMethod.fit_transform()

Fit the method and transform the data.

Modifies self.adata in place.

Return type:

None

ScanoramaMethod.get_model_info()

Get information about the fitted model.

Return type:

dict[str, Any]

Returns:

Dict[str, Any] Dictionary with model information.

ScanoramaMethod.load_artifact(source, artifact_type='model', embedding_key=None, **kwargs)

Load a pre-trained model or embedding from various sources.

Parameters:

• source (str | Path | dict) – Source of the artifact. Can be: - str/Path: Local path to model directory or embedding file - dict: WandB parameters with keys ‘run_id’, ‘entity’, ‘project’

• artifact_type (Literal['model', 'embedding'] (default: 'model')) – Type of artifact to load: ‘model’ or ‘embedding’.

• embedding_key (str | None (default: None)) – Key to store embedding in adata.obsm. If None, uses self.embedding_key. Only used when artifact_type=’embedding’.

• **kwargs – Additional arguments passed to loading functions.

Return type:

None

ScanoramaMethod.save_embedding(format_type='parquet', filename=None, compression=True)

Save embedding to file with preserved cell names as index.

Parameters:

• format_type (Literal['parquet', 'pickle', 'h5'] (default: 'parquet')) – Format to save embedding in. Options: ‘parquet’, ‘pickle’, or ‘h5’.

• filename (str | None (default: None)) – Custom filename (without extension). If None, uses “embedding”.

• compression (bool (default: True)) – Whether to use compression (gzip for all formats).

Return type:

Path

Returns:

Path Path to the saved embedding file.

Raises:

ValueError – If method is not fitted or embedding key not found in adata.obsm.

ScanoramaMethod.save_model(path)

Save the trained model (for deep learning methods).

Parameters:

path (Path) – Directory to save the model.

Return type:

Path | None

Returns:

Optional[Path] Path to saved model file, None if method doesn’t support saving.

ScanoramaMethod.setup(force_recompute=False)

Setup Scanorama-specific preprocessing.

Return type:

None

ScanoramaMethod.transform()

Apply Scanorama integration.

ScanoramaMethod.validate_adata(adata)

Validate the AnnData object has required keys and structure.

Parameters:

adata (AnnData) – Annotated data object to validate.

Raises:

ValueError – If required keys are missing or data is malformed.

Return type:

AnnData

ScanoramaMethod.validate_spatial_adata(adata)

Validate spatial-specific data requirements.

Parameters:

adata (AnnData) – Annotated data object to validate.

Raises:

ValueError – If required spatial keys are missing or data is malformed.

Return type:

None
