PIASO
Precise Integrative Analysis of Single-cell Omics
PIASO is a Python toolkit for single-cell omics analysis: marker-gene-guided dimensionality reduction (GDR), INFOG normalization, gene-set scoring, cell-type annotation and label transfer, and a plotting suite built for publication figures.
It works on an AnnData in memory, and on
cytome datasets by streaming from disk in
chunks — peak memory is set by the batch size rather than by the number of
cells, so the same functions run on a few thousand cells or on several million.
Documentation
Installation
Install from PyPI (stable release):
pip install piaso-tools
This also installs cytome, the on-disk
dataset format PIASO reads and writes. Nothing extra to install to work with
.cytome files.
Install from bioconda (stable release):
conda install -c conda-forge -c bioconda piaso
Install from GitHub (latest development version):
pip install git+https://github.com/genecell/PIASO.git
Using PIASO with a coding agent
PIASO-for-agents makes the
PIASO ecosystem available to coding agents from one canonical knowledge base,
generating Claude skills, Cursor rules, AGENTS.md, llms.txt, and an MCP
server. Useful if you work in Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Codex, Windsurf,
Cline, or Aider and want the agent to know the current API rather than guess it.
