 One of the goals of reference-based single-cell RNA-seq analysis is to detect altered cell states that are not observed in the reference dataset.
-This repository contains code to benchmark workflows for integration and differential analysis on the task of detection of Out-of-reference (OOR) states, used in our [preprint](https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2022.11.10.515939v1) on reference design for disease state identification. For code to reproduce analysis in the manuscript see the [reproducibility repo](https://github.com/MarioniLab/oor_design_reproducibility).
