What is CellOracle-lite?

CellOracle-lite is a reduced version of CellOracle designed to support Gene Regulatory Network (GRN) workflows used in ReCoN and HuMMuS, while avoiding heavy dependencies required by the full CellOracle stack.

Version: 0.21.0 (lite fork)
Import as: import celloracle
Maintained by: cantinilab

This fork was created because some dependency combinations required by the full CellOracle package could not be resolved in the environments used by ReCoN and HuMMuS.

This fork:

• keeps the core GRN-related functionality needed by ReCoN
• removes optional or heavyweight components not required for these workflows
• aims to be faster and easier to install in lightweight environments

If you need the full CellOracle feature set, please use the official CellOracle package instead.
