Description: RETROFIT is a Bayesian non-negative matrix factorization
        framework to decompose cell type mixtures in ST data without
        using external single-cell expression references. RETROFIT
        outperforms existing reference-based methods in estimating cell
        type proportions and reconstructing gene expressions in
        simulations with varying spot size and sample heterogeneity,
        irrespective of the quality or availability of the single-cell
        reference. RETROFIT recapitulates known cell-type localization
        patterns in a Slide-seq dataset of mouse cerebellum without
        using any single-cell data.
