the object we just updated sce 👉We overwrote our previous 'sce' by reassigning the results back to 'sce' (possible because this particular function returns a 'SingleCellExperiment' that contains the results in addition to the original data) ⚠ Some functions - especially those outside the single-cell oriented Bioconductor packages - do not do this, then we need to do extra work

consists of high-quality cells1 - (Optional: log-transform the QC metric) - Compute median QC metric - Compute median absolute deviation (MAD2) of QC metric - Identify outliers as those cells with a QC metric more than 3 MADs3 from the median in the "problematic" direction. - You can control how many MADs are acceptable - You can decide which direction is problematic 1But we'll relax that assumption in a few moments 2MAD is similar to standard deviation 3Loosely, 3 MADs will retain 99% of non-outliers values that follow a Normal distribution
quality ⚠ Adaptive thresholds will fail if majority of cells are of unacceptably low quality 🔬 Experimental support (e.g., imaging, cell viability) 🤔 What is 'acceptable' will vary by cell type Poor QC metrics are driven by technical factors rather than biological processes ⚠ Highly heterogeneous cell populations may contain cells with systematically low RNA content, for example 🤔 What cell types might be discarded by your QC metric thresholds
