clustifyr: Classifier for Single-cell RNA-seq Using Cell Clusters

Package designed to aid in classifying cells from single-cell RNA sequencing data using external reference data (e.g., bulk RNA-seq, scRNA-seq, microarray, gene lists). A variety of correlation based methods and gene list enrichment methods are provided to assist cell type assignment.
