Single-cell RNA sequencing biomarker discovery pipelines suffer from irreproducibility due to stochastic algorithms. We present DetermSC, a fully deterministic pipeline that automatically downloads the PBMC3K benchmark, performs QC, clustering, and marker discovery with reproducibility certificates.

Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) biomarker discovery pipelines suffer from irreproducibility due to stochastic algorithms, hidden random states, and inconsistent preprocessing. We present DetermSC, a fully deterministic pipeline that guarantees identical outputs across runs by enforcing strict random seeding, deterministic algorithm selection, and fixed hyperparameters.
