The invention discloses a new cell type identification method based on similarity learning and enhancement thereof. The method designs a new global similarity calculation method, combines with other three conventional local similarity information, screens the genes, and carries out enhancement processing on the global similarity with sparse properties. According to the method, a global similaritycalculation method different from the traditional calculation of the local point-to-point similarity is used, the gene selection and the similarity enhancement are carried out by combining multiple different similarities including the global similarity and the local similarity, and a similarity matrix rich in information is obtained. According to the method, the influence of the factors, such as the technical noise, the biological noise, etc., carried by the single cell data can be effectively reduced, and the type of the single cell can be more accurately identified.
