Reliability evaluation of sensitive gene identification in PbmcBench PBMC data set. a There were 211, 274, 274 and 314 sensitive genes in each sample of the PbmcBench PBMC data set, with 96 sensitive genes in common; b The KEGG enrichment result of these 96 common sensitive genes showed that these sensitive genes were obviously enriched in pathways related to cellular stress response; c In the first sample of PbmcBench PBMC1, we compared three types of genes (cell marker genes, HK genes, and sensitive genes) by their entropy and CV-rank in total cells (dotted line represent the threshold of HVGs); d We compared these three types of genes by their entropy and number of clusters with high CV-rank (top 2000); e, f We used the Kruskal–Wallis test to compare these three types of genes from the aspects of entropy and number of clusters with high CV-rank (top 2000)
