Welcome to besca’s documentation!

The besca (BEDA’s single-cell sequencing analysis) package builds upon the scanpy library and offers additional data structures and functions for single-cell analysis.

The package has grouped into 6 modules:

  • preprocessing functions: the pp module contains functions relevant for data preprocessing.

  • plotting functions: the pl module offers additional plot types not available in the scanpy package

  • tools: the tl module contains additional tools, for instance tools to perform differential gene analysis

  • standardworkflow: the st module contains functions optimized for besca standard single-cell sequencing analysis pipeline

  • import/export: the Import and export modules are collection of functions to export/load data from the FAIR data format

In addition you will find example code and output (including some short tutorials) here, as well as extensive documentation on adding functions to besca.
