Single-cell Hi-C (scHi-C) techniques have significantly advanced our understanding of the 3D genome organization, providing crucial insights into the spatial genome architecture within individual nuclei. Numerous computational and statistical methods have been developed to analyze scHi-C data, with embedding methods playing a key role. Embedding reduces the dimensionality of complex scHi-C contact maps, making it easier to extract biologically meaningful patterns. These methods not only enhance cell clustering based on chromatin structures but also facilitate visualization and other downstream analyses. Most scHi-C embedding methods incorporate strategies such as normalization and imputation to address the inherent sparsity of scHi-C data, thereby further improving data quality and interpretability. In this review, we systematically examine the existing methods designed for scHi-C embedding, outlining their methodologies and discussing their capabilities in handling normalization and imputation. Additionally, we present a comprehensive benchmarking analysis to compare both embedding techniques and their clustering performances. This review serves as a practical guide for researchers seeking to select suitable scHi-C embedding tools, ultimately contributing to the understanding of the 3D organization of the genome.
