## Installation
deepsignal is built on Python3. [tombo](https://github.com/nanoporetech/tombo) is required to re-squiggle the raw signals from nanopore reads before running deepsignal.
- Prerequisites:\
[Python 3.*](https://www.python.org/)\
[tensorflow](https://www.tensorflow.org/) (1.8.0<=tensorflow<=1.13.1)\
[tombo](https://github.com/nanoporetech/tombo)
- Dependencies:\
[numpy](http://www.numpy.org/)\
[h5py](https://github.com/h5py/h5py)\
[statsmodels](https://github.com/statsmodels/statsmodels/)\
[scikit-learn](https://scikit-learn.org/stable/)

#### 1. Create an environment
We highly recommend using a virtual environment for the installation of deepsignal and its dependencies. A virtual environment can be created and (de)activated as follows by using [conda](https://conda.io/docs/):
```bash
# create
conda create -n deepsignalenv python=3.7
# activate
conda activate deepsignalenv
# deactivate
conda deactivate
```
The virtual environment can also be created by using [virtualenv](https://github.com/pypa/virtualenv/).

#### 2. Install deepsignal
- After creating and activating the environment, download and install deepsignal (**latest version**) from github:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/bioinfomaticsCSU/deepsignal.git
cd deepsignal
python setup.py install
```
**or** install deepsignal using *pip*:
```bash
pip install deepsignal
```

- [tombo](https://github.com/nanoporetech/tombo) is required to be installed in the same environment:
```bash
# install using conda
conda install -c bioconda ont-tombo
# or install using pip
pip install ont-tombo
```

- install [tensorflow](https://www.tensorflow.org/) (version: 1.8.0<=tensorflow<=1.13.1) in the same environment:

```bash
# install using conda
conda install -c anaconda tensorflow==1.13.1
# or install using pip
pip install 'tensorflow==1.13.1'
```
If a GPU-machine is used, install the gpu version of tensorflow. The cpu version is not required:
```bash
# install using conda
conda install -c anaconda tensorflow-gpu==1.13.1
# or install using pip
pip install 'tensorflow-gpu==1.13.1'
```

## Trained models
The models we trained can be downloaded from [google drive](https://drive.google.com/open?id=1zkK8Q1gyfviWWnXUBMcIwEDw3SocJg7P).

Currently we have trained the following models:
* _model.CpG.R9.4_1D.human_hx1.bn17.sn360.v0.1.7+.tar.gz_: A CpG model trained using HX1 R9.4 1D reads (for **deepsignal>=0.1.7**).
* ~~_model.CpG.R9.4_1D.human_hx1.bn17.sn360.tar.gz_: A CpG model trained using HX1 R9.4 1D reads (for **deepsignal<=0.1.6**).~~
* ~~_model.GATC.R9_2D.tem.puc19.bn17.sn360.tar.gz_: A G*A*TC model trained using pUC19 R9 2D template reads (for **deepsignal<=0.1.6**).~~

## Example data
The example data can be downloaded from [google drive](https://drive.google.com/open?id=1zkK8Q1gyfviWWnXUBMcIwEDw3SocJg7P).

* ~~_fast5s.sample.tar.gz_: The data contain ~4000 yeast R9.4 1D reads each with called events (basecalled by Albacore), along with a genome reference.~~

## Quick start
To call modifications, the raw fast5 files should be basecalled ([Guppy or Albacore](https://nanoporetech.com/community)) and then be re-squiggled by [tombo](https://github.com/nanoporetech/tombo). At last, modifications of specified motifs can be called by deepsignal. The following are commands to call 5mC in CG contexts from the example data:
```bash
# 1. guppy basecall
guppy_basecaller -i fast5s.al -r -s fast5s.al.guppy --config dna_r9.4.1_450bps_hac_prom.cfg
cat fast5s.al.guppy/*.fastq > fast5s.al.guppy.fastq
# 2. tombo resquiggle
tombo preprocess annotate_raw_with_fastqs --fast5-basedir fast5s.al --fastq-filenames fast5s.al.guppy.fastq --sequencing-summary-filenames fast5s.al.guppy/sequencing_summary.txt --basecall-group Basecall_1D_000 --basecall-subgroup BaseCalled_template --overwrite --processes 10
tombo resquiggle fast5s.al GCF_000146045.2_R64_genomic.fna --processes 10 --corrected-group RawGenomeCorrected_001 --basecall-group Basecall_1D_000 --overwrite
# 3. deepsignal call_mods
deepsignal call_mods --input_path fast5s.al/ --model_path model.CpG.R9.4_1D.human_hx1.bn17.sn360.v0.1.7+/bn_17.sn_360.epoch_9.ckpt --result_file fast5s.al.CpG.call_mods.tsv --corrected_group RawGenomeCorrected_001 --nproc 10 --is_gpu no
python /path/to/deepsignal/scripts/call_modification_frequency.py --input_path fast5s.al.CpG.call_mods.tsv --result_file fast5s.al.CpG.call_mods.frequency.tsv
```

## Usage
#### 1. Basecall and re-squiggle
Before run deepsignal, the raw reads should be basecalled ([Guppy or Albacore](https://nanoporetech.com/community)) and then be processed by the *re-squiggle* module of [tombo](https://github.com/nanoporetech/tombo).

Note:
- If the fast5 files are in multi-read FAST5 format, please use _multi_to_single_fast5_ command from the [ont_fast5_api package](https://github.com/nanoporetech/ont_fast5_api) to convert the fast5 files first (Ref to [issue #173](https://github.com/nanoporetech/tombo/issues/173) in [tombo](https://github.com/nanoporetech/tombo)).
```bash
multi_to_single_fast5 -i $multi_read_fast5_dir -s $single_read_fast5_dir -t 30 --recursive
```
- If the basecall results are saved as fastq, run the [*tombo proprecess annotate_raw_with_fastqs*](https://nanoporetech.github.io/tombo/resquiggle.html) command before *re-squiggle*.

For the example data:
```bash
# 1. basecall
guppy_basecaller -i fast5s.al -r -s fast5s.al.guppy --config dna_r9.4.1_450bps_hac_prom.cfg
# 2. proprecess fast5 if basecall results are saved in fastq format
cat fast5s.al.guppy/*.fastq > fast5s.al.guppy.fastq
tombo preprocess annotate_raw_with_fastqs --fast5-basedir fast5s.al --fastq-filenames fast5s.al.guppy.fastq --sequencing-summary-filenames fast5s.al.guppy/sequencing_summary.txt --basecall-group Basecall_1D_000 --basecall-subgroup BaseCalled_template --overwrite --processes 10
# 3. resquiggle, cmd: tombo resquiggle $fast5_dir $reference_fa
tombo resquiggle fast5s.al GCF_000146045.2_R64_genomic.fna --processes 10 --corrected-group RawGenomeCorrected_001 --basecall-group Basecall_1D_000 --overwrite
```

#### 2. extract features
Features of targeted sites can be extracted for training or testing.

For the example data (deepsignal extracts 17-mer-seq and 360-signal features of each CpG motif in reads by default. Note that the value of *--corrected_group* must be the same as that of *--corrected-group* in tombo.):
```bash
deepsignal extract --fast5_dir fast5s.al/ --write_path fast5s.al.CpG.signal_features.17bases.rawsignals_360.tsv --corrected_group RawGenomeCorrected_001 --nproc 10
```

The extracted_features file is a tab-delimited text file in the following format:
- **chrom**: the chromosome name
- **pos**: 0-based position of the targeted base in the chromosome
- **strand**: +/-, the aligned strand of the read to the reference
- **pos_in_strand**: 0-based position of the targeted base in the aligned strand of the chromosome (_legacy column, not necessary for downstream analysis_)
- **readname**: the read name
- **read_strand**: t/c, template or complement
- **k_mer**: the sequence around the targeted base
- **signal_means**: signal means of each base in the kmer
- **signal_stds**: signal stds of each base in the kmer
- **signal_lens**: lens of each base in the kmer
- **cent_signals**: the central signals of the kmer
- **methy_label**: 0/1, the label of the targeted base, for training

#### 3. call modifications
The extracted features can be used to call modifications as follows (If a GPU-machine is used, set *--is_gpu* to "yes".):
```bash
# the CpGs are called by using the CpG model of HX1 R9.4 1D
deepsignal call_mods --input_path fast5s.al.CpG.signal_features.17bases.rawsignals_360.tsv --model_path model.CpG.R9.4_1D.human_hx1.bn17.sn360.v0.1.7+/bn_17.sn_360.epoch_9.ckpt --result_file fast5s.al.CpG.call_mods.tsv --nproc 10 --is_gpu no
```

**The modifications can also be called from the fast5 files directly**:
```bash
# use CPU
deepsignal call_mods --input_path fast5s.al/ --model_path model.CpG.R9.4_1D.human_hx1.bn17.sn360.v0.1.7+/bn_17.sn_360.epoch_9.ckpt --result_file fast5s.al.CpG.call_mods.tsv --corrected_group RawGenomeCorrected_001 --nproc 10 --is_gpu no
# or use GPU
CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0 deepsignal call_mods --input_path fast5s.al/ --model_path model.CpG.R9.4_1D.human_hx1.bn17.sn360.v0.1.7+/bn_17.sn_360.epoch_9.ckpt --result_file fast5s.al.CpG.call_mods.tsv --corrected_group RawGenomeCorrected_001 --nproc 10 --is_gpu yes
```

The modification_call file is a tab-delimited text file in the following format:
- **chrom**: the chromosome name
- **pos**: 0-based position of the targeted base in the chromosome
- **strand**: +/-, the aligned strand of the read to the reference
- **pos_in_strand**: 0-based position of the targeted base in the aligned strand of the chromosome (_legacy column, not necessary for downstream analysis_)
- **readname**: the read name
- **read_strand**: t/c, template or complement
- **prob_0**: [0, 1], the probability of the targeted base predicted as 0 (unmethylated)
- **prob_1**: [0, 1], the probability of the targeted base predicted as 1 (methylated)
- **called_label**: 0/1, unmethylated/methylated
- **k_mer**: the kmer around the targeted base

A modification-frequency file can be generated by the script [scripts/call_modification_frequency.py](https://github.com/bioinfomaticsCSU/deepsignal/blob/master/scripts/call_modification_frequency.py) with the modification_call file:
```bash
python /path/to/deepsignal/scripts/call_modification_frequency.py --input_path fast5s.al.CpG.call_mods.tsv --result_file fast5s.al.CpG.call_mods.frequency.tsv --prob_cf 0
```

The modification_frequency file is a tab-delimited text file in the following format:
- **chrom**: the chromosome name
- **pos**: 0-based position of the targeted base in the chromosome
- **strand**: +/-, the aligned strand of the read to the reference
- **pos_in_strand**: 0-based position of the targeted base in the aligned strand of the chromosome (_legacy column, not necessary for downstream analysis_)
- **prob_0_sum**: sum of the probabilities of the targeted base predicted as 0 (unmethylated)
- **prob_1_sum**: sum of the probabilities of the targeted base predicted as 1 (methylated)
- **count_modified**: number of reads in which the targeted base counted as modified
- **count_unmodified**: number of reads in which the targeted base counted as unmodified
- **coverage**: number of reads aligned to the targeted base
- **modification_frequency**: modification frequency
- **k_mer**: the kmer around the targeted base

#### 4. train new models
A new model can be trained as follows:
```bash
# need two independent datasets for training and validating
# use deepsignal train -h/--help for more details
deepsignal train --train_file /path/to/train_data/file --valid_file /path/to/valid_data/file --model_dir /dir/to/save/the/new/model
```
