Clustering can identify the natural structure that is inherent to measured data. For single-cell omics, clustering finds cells with similar molecular phenotype after which cell types are annotated. Leiden clustering is one of the algorithms of choice in the single-cell community. In the field of spatial omics, Leiden is often categorized as a “non-spatial” clustering method. However, we show that by integrating spatial information at various steps Leiden clustering is rendered into …
