adverSCarial is a package for generating and evaluating vulnerability to adversarial attacks on single-cell RNA sequencing classifiers. Single cell analysis are on the way to be used in clinical routine. As a critical use, algorithms must address the challenge of ensuring reliability, one concern being the susceptibility to adversarial attacks.

The package is designed to generate and analyze the vulnerability of scRNA-seq classifiers to adversarial attacks. The package is versatile and provides a format for integrating any type of classifier. It offers functions for studying and generating two types of attacks, single gene attack and max change attack. The single gene attack involves making a small modification to the input to alter the classification. This is an issue when the change of classification is made on a gene that is not known to be biologicaly involved in the change of this cell type. The max change attack involves making a large modification to the input without changing its classification. This is an issue when a significant percentage of genes, sometimes as high as 99%, can be modified with the classifier still predicting the same cell type.
There are three types of adversarial attacks:
single-gene attack which modifies the expression of a gene
in order to alter the classification, max-change attack
which introduce the largest possible perturbations to the input while
still keeping the same classification, and
Cluster Gradient Descent (CGD) which modifies the input
matrix gene by gene by following an approximated gradient until the
cluster has switch its classification.

"GNLY", "NKG7", "FCER1A", "CST3", "PPBP")Modify the value of a gene inside a cell cluster in order to change its classification.
The function advSingleGene runs a dichotomic search of
one gene attacks, given the cluster to attack and a type of
modification. We suggest two main modifications: perc1
replacing the value of the gene by its first percentile, and
perc99 replacing the value of the gene by its 99th
percentile. The adv_fct argument allows users to choose
custom modifications of the gene.
The excl_genes argument allows users to exclude certain
genes from being modified. Here we exclude the genes usually used as
markers of specific cell types, as defined previously.
Computation times can be lengthy, we use the
return_first_found argument to return the result as soon as
it is found.
We can specify the change_type = "not_na" argument to
indicate that we want the attack to misclassify the cluster as an
existing cell type, rather than as NA.

## [1] "Platelet" "1"The function found that modifying the single gene PF4 with the
perc99 modification on the cluster leads to a new
classification, Platelet.
Let’s run this attack and verify if it is successful.
First we modify the matPbmc matrix on the target
cluster.
Then classify the “DC” cluster with MClassifier.

resCGD <- advCGD(as.data.frame(matPbmc), cellTypes,
"Memory CD4 T", MClassifier, alpha=1, epsilon=1,
