Comprehensive benchmarking tests on 17 public scRNA-seq data sets show that SHARP outperforms existing methods in terms of speed and accuracy. Particularly, for large-size data sets (more than 40,000 cells), SHARP runs faster than other competitors while maintaining high clustering accuracy and robustness. To the best of our knowledge, SHARP is the only R-based tool that is scalable to clustering scRNA-seq data with 10 million cells. ER -
