paccmann_omics

Generative models of omic data for PaccMann^RL.

paccmann_omics is a package to model omic data, with examples for generative models of gene expression profiles and encoded proteins (vector representations). For example, see our papers:

• PaccMann^RL: De novo generation of hit-like anticancer molecules from transcriptomic data via reinforcement learning (iScience, 2021). In there, we use a denoising, dense VAE to model gene expression profiles from TCGA (code in this repo). We then use these encodings to conditionally generate de novo molecules with high predicted efficacy against these cell types.
• Data-driven molecular design for discovery and synthesis of novel ligands: a case study on SARS-CoV-2 (Machine Learning: Science and Technology, 2021). In there, we use a denoising, dense VAE to model proteins from UniProt (code in this repo). We then use a set of 41 SARS-CoV-2 related proteins to conditionally generate de novo molecules with high predicted binding affinity against these proteins.

Requirements

• conda>=3.7

Installation

The library itself has few dependencies (see setup.py) with loose requirements. To run the example training script we provide environment files under examples/.

Create a conda environment:

conda env create -f examples/gene_expression/conda.yml

Activate the environment:

conda activate paccmann_omics

Install in editable mode for development:

pip install -e .

Example usage

In the examples directory is a training script train_vae.py that makes use of paccmann_omics.

(paccmann_omics) $ python examples/gene_expression/train_vae.py -h
usage: train_vae.py [-h]
                    train_filepath val_filepath gene_filepath model_path
                    params_filepath training_name

Omics VAE training script.

positional arguments:
  train_filepath   Path to the training data (.csv).
  val_filepath     Path to the validation data (.csv).
  gene_filepath    Path to a pickle object containing list of genes.
  model_path       Directory where the model will be stored.
  params_filepath  Path to the parameter file.
  training_name    Name for the training.

optional arguments:
  -h, --help       show this help message and exit

params_filepath could point to examples/gene_expression/example_params.json, examples for other files can be downloaded from here.
