dlomix 0.1.0

Deep Learning for Proteomics

DLOmix

DLOmix is a Python framework for Deep Learning in Proteomics. Initially built on top of TensorFlow/Keras, support for PyTorch can however be integrated once the main API is established.

Usage

Experiment a simple retention time prediction use-case using Google Colab   

A version that includes experiment tracking with Weights and Biases is available here   

Resources Repository

More learning resources can be found in the dlomix-resources repository.

Installation

Run the following to install:

$ pip install dlomix

If you would like to use Weights & Biases for experiment tracking and use the available reports for Retention Time under /notebooks, please install the optional wandb python dependency with dlomix by running:

$ pip install dlomix[wandb]

General Overview

• data: structures for modeling the input data, processing functions, and feature extractions based on Hugging Face datasets Dataset and DatasetDict
• eval: classes for evaluating models and reporting results
• layers: custom layers used for building models, based on tf.keras.layers.Layer
• losses: custom losses to be used for training with model.fit()
• models: common model architectures for the relevant use-cases based on tf.keras.Model to allow for using the Keras training API
• pipelines: an exemplary high-level pipeline implementation
• reports: classes for generating reports related to the different tasks
• constants.py: constants and configuration values
• utils.py: utility functions

Use-cases

• Retention Time Prediction:

  • a regression problem where the retention time of a peptide sequence is to be predicted.

• Fragment Ion Intensity Prediction:

  • a multi-output regression problem where the intensity values for fragment ions are predicted given a peptide sequence along with some additional features.

To-Do

Functionality:

• integrate prosit
• integrate hugging face datasets
• extend data representation to include modifications
• add PTM features
• add residual plots to reporting, possibly other regression analysis tools
• output reporting results as PDF
• refactor reporting module to use W&B Report API (Retention Time)
• extend pipeline for different types of models and backbones
• extend pipeline to allow for fine-tuning with custom datasets

Package structure:

• integrate deeplc.py into models.py, preferably introduce a package structure (e.g. models.retention_time)
• add references for implemented models in the ReadMe
• introduce formatting and precommit hooks
• plan documentation (sphinx and readthedocs)
• refactor following best practices for cleaner install

Developing DLOmix

To install dlomix, along with the tools needed to develop and run tests, run the following command in your virtualenv:

$ pip install -e .[dev]
