Feature Request: Store freqs in annotation when majority_vote set to True about celltypist

[ChuanXu1]

@eroell, I believe the feature you requested is a cell type- or cluster-level metadata, rather than cell-level information. You can use the two columns from celltypist.classifier.AnnotationResult.predicted_labels (over_clustering and predicted_labels) to get the freq of each cluster.

Hey, thanks for getting back to this so quickly!

Yes, this indeed is a cluster-level information (I dont think it is a cell type information?).

Absolutely, these two columns from celltypist.classifier.AnnotationResult.predicted_labels can be used for that.

My line of thought here was that just like when getting labels+probabilities using the default annotation scheme, getting labels+”probabilities” for the majority vote scheme. Yep, these “probabilities” (being frequencies) for the majority vote scheme are cluster-level information: so are the majority vote labels, which are also reported at cell-level.

As you said, this can be gotten with a few lines - the enhancement would be pure convenience.

So in case it seems other people are not interested in this, feel free to close the issue! :)
