Single-cell RNA Velocity has dramatically advanced our ability to model cellular differentiation and cell fate decisions. However, current preprocessing choices and model assumptions often lead to errors in assigning developmental trajectories. Here, we develop, Pyro-Velocity, a Bayesian, generative, and multivariate RNA Velocity model to estimate the uncertainty of cell future states. This approach models raw sequencing counts with the synchronized cell time across all expressed genes to provide quantifiable and improved information on cell fate choices and developmental trajectory dynamics.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
