ddn3 0.1.0

Dependency network analysis under two conditions

DDN 3.0

We developed an efficient and accurate differential network analysis tool – Differential Dependency Networks (DDN). DDN is capable of jointly learning sparse common and rewired network structures, which is especially useful for genomics, proteomics, and other biomedical studies. DDN 3.0 significantly improves the speed of previous verions of DDN, and is available as a Python package. This repository provides the source code and examples of using DDN.

Installation

Option 1: install into a new Conda environment using pip

One way is to install DDN into a new Conda environment. To create and activate an environment named ddn, run this:

conda create -n ddn python=3.11
conda activate ddn

Python 3.12 may have some issue with Numba.

DDN 3.0 can then be installed with the followin command.

pip install ddn3

Option 2: install into an existing Conda environment

If you want to install DDN into an existing Conda environment, it is suggested to install dependencies from Conda first.

First we need to install some common dependencies.

$ conda install -c conda-forge numpy scipy numba networkx matplotlib jupyter scipy pandas scikit-learn

Then run

pip install ddn3

Alternatively, you can clone the repository, or just download or unzip it. Then we can install DDN 3.0.

$ pip install ./

Or you may want to install it in development mode.

$ pip install -e ./

Usage

This toy example generates two random datasets, and use estimate to estimate two networks, one for each dataset.

import numpy as np
from ddn import ddn
dat1 = np.random.randn(1000, 10)
dat2 = np.random.randn(1000, 10)
networks = ddn.ddn(dat1, dat2, lambda1=0.3, lambda2=0.1)

For more details and examples, check the documentation, which includes three tutorials and the API reference. The tutorials can also be found in the docs/notebooks folder.
