DeepCpG1 is a deep neural network for predicting the methylation state of CpG dinucleotides in multiple cells. It allows to accurately impute incomplete DNA methylation profiles, to discover predictive sequence motifs, and to quantify the effect of sequence mutations. (Angermueller et al, 2017).
Please help to improve DeepCpG, by reporting bugs, typos in notebooks and documentation, or any ideas on how to make things better. You can submit an issue or send me an email.
(a) Sparse single-cell CpG profiles as obtained from scBS-seq or scRRBS-seq. Methylated CpG sites are denoted by ones, unmethylated CpG sites by zeros, and question marks denote CpG sites with unknown methylation state (missing data). (b) DeepCpG model architecture. The DNA model consists of two convolutional and pooling layers to identify predictive motifs from the local sequence context, and one fully connected layer to model motif interactions. The CpG model scans the CpG neighborhood of multiple cells (rows in b), using a bidirectional gated recurrent network (GRU), yielding compressed features in a vector of constant size. The Joint model learns interactions between higher-level features derived from the DNA- and CpG model to predict methylation states in all cells. (c, d) The trained DeepCpG model can be used for different downstream analyses, including genome-wide imputation of missing CpG sites (c) and the discovery of DNA sequence motifs that are associated with DNA methylation levels or cell-to-cell variability (d).

The easiest way to install DeepCpG is to use PyPI:
pip install deepcpgAlternatively, you can checkout the repository,
git clone https://github.com/cangermueller/deepcpg.gitand then install DeepCpG using setup.py:
python setup.py install- Store known CpG methylation states of each cell into a tab-delimted file with the following columns:
- Chromosome (without chr)
- Position of the CpG site on the chromosome starting with one
- Binary methylation state of the CpG sites (0=unmethylation, 1=methylated)
Example:
1 3000827 1.0
1 3001007 0.0
1 3001018 1.0
...
Y 90829839 1.0
Y 90829899 1.0
Y 90829918 0.0- Run
dcpg_data.pyto create the input data for DeepCpG:
dcpg_data.py
--cpg_profiles ./cpg/cell1.tsv ./cpg/cell2.tsv ./cpg/cell3.tsv
--dna_files ./dna/mm10
--cpg_wlen 50
--dna_wlen 1001
--out_dir ./data./cpg/cell[123].tsv store the methylation data from step 1., ./dna contains the DNA database, e.g. mm10 for mouse or hg38 for human, and output data files will be stored in ./data.
- Fine-tune a pre-trained model or train your own model from scratch with
dcpg_train.py:
dcpg_train.py
./data/c{1,3,6,7,9}_*.h5
--val_data ./data/c{13,14,15,16,17,18,19}_*.h5
--dna_model CnnL2h128
--cpg_model RnnL1
--joint_model JointL2h512
--nb_epoch 30
--out_dir ./modelThis command uses chromosomes 1-3 for training and 10-13 for validation. ---dna_model, --cpg_model, and --joint_model specify the architecture of the CpG, DNA, and Joint model, respectively (see manuscript for details). Training will stop after at most 30 epochs and model files will be stored in ./model.
- Use
dcpg_eval.pyto impute methylation profiles and evaluate model performances.
dcpg_eval.py
./data/*.h5
--model_files ./model/model.json ./model/model_weights_val.h5
--out_data ./eval/data.h5
--out_report ./eval/report.tsvThis command predicts missing methylation states on all chromosomes and evaluates prediction performances using known methylation states. Predicted states will be stored in ./eval/data.h5 and performance metrics in ./eval/report.tsv.
- Export imputed methylation profiles to HDF5 or bedGraph files:
dcpg_eval_export.py
./eval/data.h5
-o ./eval/hdf
-f hdfYou can find example notebooks and scripts on how to use DeepCpG here.
The DeepCpG documentation provides information on training, hyper-parameter selection, and model architectures.
You can download pre-trained models from the DeepCpG model zoo.
Why am I getting warnings 'No CpG site at position X!' when using `dcpg_data.py`? This means that some sites in --cpg_profile files are not CpG sites, i.e. there is no CG dinucleotide at the given position in the DNA sequence. Make sure that --dna_files point to the correct genome and CpG sites are correctly aligned. Since DeepCpG currently does not support allele-specific methylation, data from different alleles must be merged (recommended) or only one allele be used.
How can I train models on one or more GPUs? DeepCpG use the Keras deep learning library, which supports Theano or Tensorflow as backend. If you are using Tensorflow, DeepCpG will automatically run on all available GPUs. If you are using Theano, you have to set the flag device=GPU in the THEANO_FLAGS environment variable.
THEANO_FLAGS='device=gpu,floatX=float32'You can find more information about Keras backends here, and about parallelization here.
