Let’s first import some packages:

[1]:
import os
import inspect
import shutil
import json
import torch
import pandas as pd
import pyaging as pya

Instantiate model class#

[2]:
def print_entire_class(cls):
    source = inspect.getsource(cls)
    print(source)

print_entire_class(pya.models.CellPopAge)
class CellPopAge(LinearReferenceClock):
    pass

[3]:
model = pya.models.CellPopAge()

Define clock metadata#

[4]:
model.metadata["clock_name"] = 'cellpopage'
model.metadata["data_type"] = 'methylation'
model.metadata["species"] = 'Homo sapiens'
model.metadata["year"] = 2024
model.metadata["approved_by_author"] = '⌛'
model.metadata["citation"] = "Lujan, Gabriel M., et al. \"A DNA methylation clock to measure the epigenetic age of cell populations.\" Genome Medicine 16 (2024)."
model.metadata["doi"] = "https://doi.org/10.1186/s13073-024-01349-w"
model.metadata["research_only"] = None
model.metadata["notes"] = "DNA-methylation clock that tracks the passage-based, replicative age of cultured adult human primary cell populations from a compact set of CpGs, uniquely designed to detect deceleration of aging by candidate anti-aging compounds in vitro."
model.metadata["tissue"] = 'adult primary human fibroblasts (mammary and dermal) in culture'
model.metadata["predicts"] = 'passage-based epigenetic age of a cell population in culture'

Download clock dependencies#

[5]:
os.system(f"curl -sL -o CellPopAge_ref.rda https://raw.githubusercontent.com/HigginsChenLab/methylCIPHER/19b12296b0d7eb7055a97d068064df635f44ce3e/data/CellPopAge_ref.rda")

Load features#

[8]:
coef_df = pd.DataFrame(json.load(open('coefficients.json')))
model.features = coef_df['CpG'].tolist()
iv = json.load(open('intercept.json'))
intercept_value = iv[0] if isinstance(iv, list) else iv

Load weights into base model#

[9]:
weights = torch.tensor(coef_df['coefficient'].tolist()).unsqueeze(0).float()
intercept = torch.tensor([intercept_value]).float()
[10]:
base_model = pya.models.LinearModel(input_dim=len(model.features))

base_model.linear.weight.data = weights.float()
base_model.linear.bias.data = intercept.float()

model.base_model = base_model

Load reference values#

[11]:
model.reference_values = None

Load preprocess and postprocess objects#

[12]:
model.preprocess_name = None
model.preprocess_dependencies = None
[13]:
model.postprocess_name = None
model.postprocess_dependencies = None

Check all clock parameters#

[14]:
pya.utils.print_model_details(model)
