Understanding complex cellular niches and neighborhoods have provided new insights into tissue biology. Thus, accurate neighborhood identification is crucial, yet existing methodologies often struggle to detect informative neighborhoods and generate cell-specific neighborhood profiles. To address these limitations, we developed hoodscanR, a Bioconductor package designed for neighborhood identification and downstream analyses using spatial data. Applying hoodscanR to breast and lung cancer datasets, we showcase its efficacy in conducting detailed neighborhood analyses and identify subtle transcriptional changes in tumor cells from different neighborhoods. Such analyses can help researchers gain valuable insights into disease mechanisms and potential therapeutic targets.

"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.
