Description: slalom is a scalable modelling framework for single-cell
        RNA-seq data that uses gene set annotations to dissect
        single-cell transcriptome heterogeneity, thereby allowing to
        identify biological drivers of cell-to-cell variability and
        model confounding factors. The method uses Bayesian factor
        analysis with a latent variable model to identify active
        pathways (selected by the user, e.g. KEGG pathways) that
        explain variation in a single-cell RNA-seq dataset. This an
        R/C++ implementation of the f-scLVM Python package. See the
        publication describing the method at
        https://doi.org/10.1186/s13059-017-1334-8.
