scPRINT: Large Cell Model for scRNAseq data
scPRINT is a large transformer model built for the inference of gene networks (connections between genes explaining the cell's expression profile) from scRNAseq data.
It uses novel encoding and decoding of the cell expression profile and new pre-training methodologies to learn a cell model.
scPRINT can be used to perform the following analyses:
- expression denoising: increase the resolution of your scRNAseq data
- cell embedding: generate a low-dimensional representation of your dataset
- label prediction: predict the cell type, disease, sequencer, sex, and ethnicity of your cells
- gene network inference: generate a gene network from any cell or cell cluster in your scRNAseq dataset
Read the manuscript! if you would like to know more about scPRINT. Have a look at some of my X-plainers.

Install scPRINT
For the moment scPRINT has been tested on MacOS and Linux (Ubuntu 20.04) with Python 3.10. Its instalation takes on average 10 minutes.
If you want to be using flashattention2, know that it only supports triton 2.0 MLIR's version and torch==2.0.0 for now.
lamin.ai
To use scPRINT, I need you to use lamin.ai. This is needed to load biological informations like genes, cell types, organisms etc...
To do so, you will need to connect with google or github to lamin.ai, then be sure to connect before running anything (or before starting a notebook): lamin login <email> --key <API-key>
. Follow the instructions on their website.
install
To start you will need to do:
conda create -n <env-name> python==3.10 #scprint might work with python >3.10, but it is not tested
#one of
pip install scprint # OR
pip install scprint[dev] # for the dev dependencies (building etc..) OR
pip install scprint[flash] # to use flashattention2 with triton: only if you have a compatible gpu (e.g. not available for apple GPUs for now, see https://github.com/triton-lang/triton?tab=readme-ov-file#compatibility)
#OR pip install scPRINT[dev,flash]
lamin login <email> --key <API-key>
lamin init --storage <folder-name-where-lamin-data-will-be-stored> --schema bionty
if you start with lamin and had to do a lamin init
, you will also need to populate your ontologies. This is because scPRINT is using ontologies to define its cell types, diseases, sexes, ethnicities, etc.
you can do it manually or with our function:
from scdataloader.utils import populate_my_ontology
populate_my_ontology() #to populate everything (recommended) (can take 2-10mns)
populate_my_ontology( #the minimum for scprint to run some inferences (denoising, grn inference)
organisms: List[str] = ["NCBITaxon:10090", "NCBITaxon:9606"],
sex: List[str] = ["PATO:0000384", "PATO:0000383"],
celltypes = None,
ethnicities = None,
assays = None,
tissues = None,
diseases = None,
dev_stages = None,
)
We make use of some additional packages we developed alongside scPRint.
Please refer to their documentation for more information:
- scDataLoader: a dataloader for training large cell models.
- GRnnData: a package to work with gene networks from single cell data.
- benGRN: a package to benchmark gene network inference methods from single cell data.
pytorch and GPUs
scPRINT can run on machines without GPUs, but it will be slow. It is highly recommended to use a GPU for inference.
Once you have a GPU, and installed the required drivers, you might need to install a specific version of pytorch that is compatible with your drivers (e.g. nvidia 550 drivers will lead to a nvidia toolkit 11.7 or 11.8 which might mean you need to re-install a different flavor of pytorch for things to work. e.g. using the command:
pip install torch==2.2.0 torchvision==0.17.0 torchaudio==2.2.0 --index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu118
on my case on linux
).
I was able to test it with nvidia 11.7, 11.8, 12.2.
dev install
If you want to use the latest version of scPRINT and work on the code yourself use git clone
and pip -e
instead of pip install
.
git clone https://github.com/jkobject/scPRINT
git clone https://github.com/jkobject/scDataLoader
git clone https://github.com/cantinilab/GRnnData
git clone https://github.com/jkobject/benGRN
pip install -e scPRINT[dev]
pip install -e scDataLoader[dev]
pip install -e GRnnData[dev]
pip install -e benGRN[dev]
Usage
scPRINT's basic commands
This is the most minimal example of how scPRINT works:
from lightning.pytorch import Trainer
from scprint import scPrint
from scdataloader import DataModule
datamodule = DataModule(...)
model = scPrint(...)
# to train / fit / test the model
trainer = Trainer(...)
trainer.fit(model, datamodule=datamodule)
# to do predictions Denoiser, Embedder, GNInfer
denoiser = Denoiser(...)
adata = sc.read_h5ad(...)
denoiser(model, adata=adata)
...
or, from a bash command line
$ scprint fit/train/predict/test/denoise/embed/gninfer --config config/[medium|large|vlarge] ...
find out more about the commands by running scprint --help
or scprint [command] --help
.
more examples of using the command line are available in the docs.
Notes on GPU/CPU usage with triton
If you do not have triton installed you will not be able to take advantage of GPU acceleration, but you can still use the model on the CPU.
In that case, if loading from a checkpoint that was trained with flashattention, you will need to specify transformer="normal"
in the load_from_checkpoint
function like so:
model = scPrint.load_from_checkpoint(
'../data/temp/last.ckpt', precpt_gene_emb=None,
transformer="normal")
Simple tests:
An instalation of scPRINT and a simple test of the denoiser is performed during each commit to the main branch with a Github action and pytest workflow. It also provides an expected runtime for the installation and run of scPRINT.
We now explore the different usages of scPRINT:
FAQ
I want to generate gene networks from scRNAseq data:
-> Refer to the section . gene network inference in this notebook.
-> More examples in this notebook ./notebooks/assessments/bench_omni.ipynb.
I want to generate cell embeddings and cell label predictions from scRNAseq data:
-> Refer to the embeddings and cell annotations section in this notebook.
I want to denoise my scRNAseq dataset:
-> Refer to the Denoising of B-cell section in this notebook.
-> More example in our benchmark notebook ./notebooks/assessments/bench_denoising.ipynb.
I want to generate an atlas-level embedding
-> Refer to the notebook nice_umap.ipynb.
I need to generate gene tokens using pLLMs
To run scPRINT, you can use the option to define the gene tokens using protein language model embeddings of genes. This is done by providing the path to a parquet file of the precomputed set of embeddings for each gene name to scPRINT via "precpt_gene_emb"
-> To generate this file please refer to the notebook generate_gene_embeddings.
I want to pre-train scPRINT from scratch on my own data
-> Refer to the documentation page pretrain scprint
how can I find if scPRINT was trained on my data?
If your data is available in cellxgene, scPRINT was likely trained on it. However some cells, datasets were dropped due to low quality data and some were randomly removed to be part of the validation / test sets.
can I use scPRINT on other organisms rather than human?
scPRINT has been pretrained on both humans and mouse, and can be used on any organism with a similar gene set. If you want to use scPRINT on very different organisms, you will need to generate gene embeddings for that organism and re-train scPRINT
how long does scPRINT takes? what kind of resources do I need? (or in alternative: can i run scPRINT locally?)
please look at our supplementary tables in the manuscript
I have different scRNASeq batches. Should I integrate my data before running scPRINT?
scPRINT takes raw count as inputs, so please don't use integrated data. Just give the raw counts to scPRINT and it will take care of the rest.
where to find the gene embeddings?
If you think you need the gene embeddings file for loading the model from a checkpoint, you don't, as the embeddings are also stored in the model weights. You just need to load the weights like this:
model = scPrint.load_from_checkpoint(
'../../data/temp/last.ckpt',
precpt_gene_emb=None,
)
You can also recreate the gene embedding file through this notebook. Just call the functions, and it should recreate the file itself.
the file itself is also available on hugging face
Documentation
For more information on usage please see the documentation in https://www.jkobject.com/scPRINT/
Model Weights
Model weights are available on hugging face.
Development
Read the CONTRIBUTING.md file.
Read the training runs document to know more about how pre-training was performed and the its behavior.
code coverage is not right as I am using the command line interface for now. >50% of the code is covered by my current unit test.
