Research direction

This issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by reviewing CopyKAT's existing usage documentation for multi-sample matrices and cell-type annotation; the work is done when both questions have documented, project-supported answers, including how to handle batch effects and identify normal and tumor cells.

Description

Hi, I have two questions regarding copykat:

  1. is it recommended to run copyKat for a merged count matrix from multiple samples? If so, how do you deal with batch effects?
  2. Can I run copykat without annotating cell types? What is the best strategy to identify normal and tumor cells using this tool?
