Deep probabilistic analysis of single-cell omics data.

Project description

scvi-tools

Stars PyPI PyPIDownloads CondaDownloads Docs Build Coverage

scvi-tools (single-cell variational inference tools) is a package for probabilistic modeling and analysis of single-cell omics data, built on top of PyTorch and AnnData.

Analysis of single-cell omics data

scvi-tools is composed of models that perform many analysis tasks across single-cell, multi, and spatial omics data:

  • Dimensionality reduction
  • Data integration
  • Automated annotation
  • Factor analysis
  • Doublet detection
  • Spatial deconvolution
  • and more!

In the user guide, we provide an overview of each model. All model implementations have a high-level API that interacts with Scanpy and includes standard save/load functions, GPU acceleration, etc.

Rapid development of novel probabilistic models

scvi-tools contains the building blocks to develop and deploy novel probabilistic models. These building blocks are powered by popular probabilistic and machine learning frameworks such as PyTorch Lightning and Pyro. For an overview of how the scvi-tools package is structured, you may refer to the codebase overview page.

We recommend checking out the skeleton repository as a starting point for developing and deploying new models with scvi-tools.

Basic installation

For conda,

conda install scvi-tools -c conda-forge

and for pip,

pip install scvi-tools

Please be sure to install a version of PyTorch that is compatible with your GPU (if applicable).
