Confidence and heterogeneity QC

How to interpret CyteType confidence badges and mixed-cluster heterogeneity signals.

What it is

Badges summarizing certainty and intra-cluster diversity, with narrative reasoning describing what is solid versus mixed.

How to read it

Confidence reflects how strongly the evidence points to the assigned cell type. Heterogeneity reflects how mixed the cluster is internally.

Scores above 0.8 generally indicate high reliability. Lower scores mark ambiguous or poorly supported populations that warrant manual review.

When to act

High heterogeneity clusters are candidates for re-clustering. The narrative often names which marker groups are causing the mixed signal.
