ChromBPNet Pytorch

• Pytorch implementation for ChromBPNet
• Please refer to original code and paper ChromBPNet: Bias factorized, base-resolution deep learning models of chromatin accessibility reveal cis-regulatory sequence syntax, transcription factor footprints and regulatory variants by Anusri Pampari*, Anna Shcherbina*, Anshul Kundaje. (*authors contributed equally)
• This repo also refers to bpnet-lite and uses tangermeme for interpretation, two very useful repos by Jacob Schreiber

Installation

Install from pypi

pip install chrombpnet-pytorch

Install from source

pip install git+https://github.com/jsxlei/chrombpnet-pytorch.git

QuickStart

Before training

• Download the genome or use your own genome data
• Download the K562 example ATAC data or use your own ATAC data

Bias-factorized ChromBPNet training

Please refer to data_config to define your own dataset or pass them through command.

if your <data_path> contains: peaks.bed, negatives.bed, and unstranded.bw, and bias_scaled.h5 as well.

chrombpnet train --data_dir <data_path>

Otherwise

chrombpnet train --peaks <peak_file> --negatives <negative_file> --bigwig <unstrand.bw> --bias <bias_scaled.h5> --adjust_bias

Predict with pretrained model in .h5 format or .cpkt or .pt

chrombpnet predict --checkpoint chrombpnet_wo_bias.h5/best_model.cpkt/chrombpnet_wo_bias.pt -o <output_path>

Interpret by calculating attribution

chrombpnet interpret --checkpoint <model_cpkt/model_h5> -o <output_path>

Input Format

• --bigwig
• --peaks
• --negatives
