GroupEnc: encoder with group loss for global structure preservation

Recent advances in dimensionality reduction have achieved more accurate lower-dimensional embeddings of high-dimensional data. In addition to visualisation purposes, these embeddings can be used for downstream processing, including batch effect normalisation, clustering, community detection or trajectory inference. We use the notion of structure preservation at both local and global levels to create a deep learning model, based on a variational autoencoder (VAE) and the stochastic quartet loss from the SQuadMDS algorithm. Our encoder model, called GroupEnc, uses a 'group loss' function to create embeddings with less global structure distortion than VAEs do, while keeping the model parametric and the architecture flexible. We validate our approach using publicly available biological single-cell transcriptomic datasets, employing RNX curves for evaluation.
