Abstract: In our Brief Communication (DOI: 10.1038/s41592-018-0033-z), we presented the method SAVER for recovering true gene expression levels in noisy single cell RNA sequencing data. We evaluated the performance of SAVER, along with comparable methods MAGIC and scImpute, in an RNA FISH validation experiment and a data downsampling experiment. In a Comment [arXiv:1908.07084v1], Li & Li were concerned with the use of the downsampled datasets, specifically focusing on clustering results obtained from the Zeisel et al. data. Here, we will address these comments and, furthermore, amend the data downsampling experiment to demonstrate that the findings from the data downsampling experiment in our Brief Communication are valid.
