abstract = {A fundamental problem in biomedical research is the low
number of observations available, mostly due to a lack of
available biosamples, prohibitive costs, or ethical reasons.
Augmenting few real observations with generated in silico
samples could lead to more robust analysis results and a
higher reproducibility rate. Here, we propose the use of
conditional single-cell generative adversarial neural
networks (cscGAN) for the realistic generation of
single-cell RNA-seq data. cscGAN learns non-linear gene-gene
dependencies from complex, multiple cell type samples and
uses this information to generate realistic cells of defined
types. Augmenting sparse cell populations with cscGAN
generated cells improves downstream analyses such as the
detection of marker genes, the robustness and reliability of
classifiers, the assessment of novel analysis algorithms,
and might reduce the number of animal experiments and costs
in consequence. cscGAN outperforms existing methods for
single-cell RNA-seq data generation in quality and hold
great promise for the realistic generation and augmentation
of other biomedical data types.},
