DOC: What is the difference between Sparsery and Sourcery?

Open nspiller opened this issue 1 year ago • 0 comments

Issue with current documentation:

Hi,

I am trying to understand ROI detection in more detail.

The algorithm outlined in the bioRxiv paper is the Sourcery algorithm, and this is also explained in the How it works section, right?

The flag sparse_mode = True, however, triggers the sparsery function here, which is the default setting.

Where can I find more information on the difference between Sourcery and Sparcery? I could only it mentioned in the ROI detection settings: sparse_mode: (bool, default: True) whether or not to use sparse_mode cell detection.

Thank you very much for your help. I hope I am not overlooking something obvious here.

Cheers

Idea or request for content:

  • explanation how sparse_mode changes the ROI detection algorithm in the appropriate section of the readthedocs
  • more info on when to use sparse mode: Is it sparse in time or space? How sparse is sparse?
