spVC’s estimation results on the prefrontal cortex spatial transcriptomics data. A 11 gene clusters identified from genes with significant residual spatial effects identified by spVC. For every cluster, the residual spatial effects (\(\hat{\gamma }_0(\cdot )\)) were scaled by the min-max normalization, and the the average was taken across all genes in the cluster to obtain the average spatial expression. B Venn diagram of enriched biological process GO terms in the three sets of genes identified by spVC. C Selected enriched GO terms in the three sets of genes and their corresponding adjusted P values
