Technical artifacts such as clogging that occur during the data acquisition process of flow cytometry data can cause spurious events and fluorescence intensity shifting that impact the quality of the data and its analysis results. These events should be identified and potentially removed before being passed to the next stage of analysis. flowCut, an R package, automatically detects anomaly events in flow cytometry experiments and flags files for potential review. Its results are on par with manual analysis and it outperforms existing automated approaches.
