加载数据
此教程演示了如何存储和与 交互Seurat 中的降维信息。为了演示目的，我们将使用通过SeuratData包提供的 2，700 个 PBMC 对象。
library(Seurat)
library(SeuratData)
pbmc <- LoadData("pbmc3k", type = "pbmc3k.final")
探索新的降维结构
在 Seurat v4.0 中，存储和与降维信息的交互已生成并信息化到对象中。每个降维过程都作为对象存储在插槽中，作为指定列表的元素。可以使用[[运算符，访问所需降维信息。 例如，使用RunPCA（）运行主成分分析后，对象[['pca']]将包含PCA的结果。 通过将新元素添加到列表中，用户可以添加附加的和自定义的降维信息。 每个存储的降维信息包含特定slot中。如
- cell.embeddings：将每个细胞的坐标存储在低维空间中。
- feature.loadings：存储每个基因在降维中的权重
- feature.loadings.projected：Seurat 通常计算基因子集（例如高变异基因）的降维信息，然后将该结构投影到整个数据集（所有基因）上。该投影的结果存储在此插槽中。
- stdev：每个维度的标准偏差。
- key：为基因坐标和表达矩阵设置的列名。
- jackstraw：存储降维过程的结果。目前仅支持PCA。
- misc：存储您可能想要的任何其他信息。
要访问这些插槽，可以使用Embeddings()Loadings()Stdev()

seurat提供 了常用的单细胞数据降维方法[RunPCA()]和 [RunTSNE()]， 使用这些功能时，所有插槽都会自动填充。
自定义降维计算
虽然没有纳入seurat，但很容易在 R 中运行多重降维（MDS）。如果您有兴趣运行 MDS， 输出将存储在 Seurat 对象中：
# Before running MDS, we first calculate a distance matrix between all pairs of cells. Here we
# use a simple euclidean distance metric on all genes, using scale.data as input
d <- dist(t(GetAssayData(pbmc, slot = "scale.data")))
# Run the MDS procedure, k determines the number of dimensions
mds <- cmdscale(d = d, k = 2)
# cmdscale returns the cell embeddings, we first label the columns to ensure downstream
# consistency
colnames(mds) <- paste0("MDS_", 1:2)
# We will now store this as a custom dimensional reduction called 'mds'
pbmc[["mds"]] <- CreateDimReducObject(embeddings = mds, key = "MDS_", assay = DefaultAssay(pbmc))
# We can now use this as you would any other dimensional reduction in all downstream functions
DimPlot(pbmc, reduction = "mds", pt.size = 0.5)

# If you wold like to observe genes that are strongly correlated with the first MDS coordinate
pbmc <- ProjectDim(pbmc, reduction = "mds")
