Analyze, visualize, and interpret root traits output from sleap-roots.

SLEAP Roots Analyze

Statistical analysis tools for root trait data from SLEAP Roots.

Installation

pip install sleap-roots-analyze

Or with uv:

uv add sleap-roots-analyze

For development:

git clone https://github.com/talmolab/sleap-roots-analyze.git
cd sleap-roots-analyze
uv sync --group dev

Quick Start

New Analysis? Start here.

Use the interactive /configure-run-all slash command (in Claude Code) to create a complete, scientifically validated set of configs for a new analysis:

/configure-run-all

It inspects your CSV, walks you through every parameter with statistical guardrails, writes QC + Viz + run manifest configs, and commits them to git as a reproducibility anchor.

Optionally validate a specific config before running:

/validate-config configs/active/qc/<your_analysis>.yaml

Then run:

/run-pipelines --manifest configs/active/run_manifest_<your_analysis>.yaml

See configs/templates/README.md for manual config authoring.

Command-Line Interface

The package provides a CLI for running QC and visualization pipelines:

# Run QC pipeline
sleap-roots-analyze qc configs/qc_turface_150genotypes.yaml

# Run with custom output directory
sleap-roots-analyze qc configs/qc_turface_150genotypes.yaml -o ./my_results

# Validate configuration
sleap-roots-analyze config validate configs/qc_turface_150genotypes.yaml

# List example configs
sleap-roots-analyze config list

# Run all pipelines from a manifest
sleap-roots-analyze run-all configs/active/run_manifest.yaml

# Get help
sleap-roots-analyze --help
sleap-roots-analyze qc --help

See docs/QC_PIPELINE_GUIDE.md for a complete guide to using the QC pipeline.

# Or use Isolation Forest for complex patterns
outliers_iso = detect_outliers_isolation_forest(
    df_filtered[trait_cols],
    contamination=0.1
)

# Remove outliers from data

Comprehensive PCA Analysis with Export

from sleap_roots_analyze.pca import run_pca_and_export_artifacts

# Run comprehensive PCA analysis with CSV exports
