EasyCellType is a R package developed to automatically examine the input marker lists obtained from existing software such as Seurat over the cell marker databases. Two quantification approaches are provided to annotate cell types: Gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) and a fisher exact test combining with expression significance. The package generates straight-forward visualization of the test results, which help the researchers to understand the results and pick the optimal annotations.
