ups and downs in the standard deviation

Open showteeth opened this issue 1 year ago • 1 comments

Hi, Thanks for providing Harmony for the integration of single-cell data.
When using ElbowPlot to select dimensions for downstream analysis, I noticed that there are ups and downs in the standard deviation (in the following figure), is this normal? To my knowledge, the standard deviation of principal components in PCA is in decreasing order. Why does this happen?
