内容介绍:Multicellular organisms rely on the cooperation between cells to carry out complex biological processes and the spatial organization of cells is crucial for their coordinated function. Spatial transcriptomics technologies now enable high-throughput profiling of gene expression within tissue sections while preserving the inherent spatial context. The inherent complexity of such data has driven the rapid evolution of advanced computational frameworks designed to decipher the underlying logic of biological systems. By modeling spatial context as a graph and viewing cellular molecular profiles as graph signals, graph signal processing (GSP) theory can be leveraged to characterize the spatial patterns of gene expression across complex tissue architectures. Here, we present a suite of computational methods based on GSP and deep learning to address diverse analytical tasks in spatial transcriptomics, including gene spatial representation (SpaGFT), spatial domain identification (DeepGFT), cell-cell communication (SpaGRD), molecular lateral diffusion recovery (DiffGSP), cell-type deconvolution (STAID), and cell imputation (CellBack). These methods not only provide effective solutions for specific analytical challenges in spatial omics but also extend the reach of mathematical modeling and theoretical frameworks to the broader, rapidly evolving field of spatial biology.
