Abstract in brief

SpaceWalker is a visual tool that helps researchers explore and analyze spatial transcriptomics data by revealing gene expression gradients related to tissue structures and cell states.
It uses a floodfill algorithm guided by the data's intrinsic dimensionality to identify groups of similar cells, making it easier to see tissue features and biological patterns in 2D and 3D datasets.
The tool is versatile, working well with various types of spatial transcriptomics protocols and large 3D brain datasets, all while allowing users to interact in real-time.]
