scFeatureFilter: A correlation-based method for quality filtering of single-cell RNAseq data

An R implementation of the correlation-based method developed in the Joshi laboratory to analyse and filter processed single-cell RNAseq data. It returns a filtered version of the data containing only genes expression values unaffected by systematic noise.
