**A**utomated **C**ommunity **D**etection of **C**ell Populations in Python  

This repo contains the current Python implementation of ACDC, an optimization-based framework to automatize clustering of cell populations from scRNA-seq data using community detection algorithms.
```acdc_py``` is deployed as a Python package and fully compatible with ```Scanpy```.

Why you may find this package useful:

• Easy computation of optimal clustering solutions via unbiased parameter tuning

• Scanpy-compatible framework

• Built for speed, memory efficiency, and scalability with large scRNAseq datasets

• Straightforward subclustering for working with broad and distinct lineages simultaneously
