ST-Net is a machine learning model for predicting spatial transcriptomics measurements from haematoxylin-and-eosin-stained pathology slides. For more details, see the acompanying paper,

By default, the raw data must be downloaded from here and placed at data/hist2tscript/.
The processed files will then be written to data/hist2tscript-patch/.
These locations can be changed by creating a config file (the priority for the filename is stnet.cfg, .stnet.cfg, ~/stnet.cfg, ~/.stnet.cfg).
An example config file is given as example.cfg.
This code assumes that the raw data has been extracted into SPATIAL_RAW_ROOT as specified by the config file.
python3 -m stnet prepare spatial # caches the counts and tumor labels into npz files
bin/create_tifs.sh # converts jpegs into tiled tif files
The models for the main results can be trained by running:
ngenes=250
model=densenet121
window=224
for patient in `python3 -m stnet patients`
do
bin/cross_validate.py output/${model}_${window}/top_${ngenes}/${patient}_ 4 50 ${patient} --lr 1e-6 --window ${window} --model ${model} --pretrain --average --batch 32 --workers 7 --gene_n ${ngenes} --norm
done
To run the comparison for different window sizes:
ngenes=250
model=densenet121
for window in 128 299 512
do
for patient in `python3 -m stnet patients`
do
bin/cross_validate.py output/${model}_${window}/top_${ngenes}/${patient}_ 4 50 ${patient} --lr 1e-6 --window ${window} --model ${model} --pretrain --average --batch 32 --workers 7 --gene_n ${ngenes} --norm
done
done
To run the comparison for different magnifications:
ngenes=250
window=224
model=densenet121
for downsample in 2 4
do
for patient in `python3 -m stnet patients`
do
bin/cross_validate.py output/${model}_${window}/top_${ngenes}_downsample_${downsample}/${patient}_ 4 50 ${patient} --lr 1e-6 --window ${window} --model ${model} --pretrain --average --batch 32 --workers 4 --gene_n ${ngenes} --norm --downsample ${downsample}
done
done
To run the comparison against random initialization:
ngenes=250
model=densenet121
window=224
for patient in `python3 -m stnet patients`
do
bin/cross_validate.py output/${model}_${window}/top_${ngenes}_rand/${patient}_ 4 50 ${patient} --lr 1e-6 --window ${window} --model ${model} --average --batch 32 --workers 7 --gene_n ${ngenes} --norm
done
To run the comparison against individual training of genes:
ngenes=250
model=densenet121
window=224
for i in `seq 10`
do
ensg=`python3 -m stnet ensg ${i}`
for patient in `python3 -m stnet patients`
do
bin/cross_validate.py output/${model}_${window}/top_${ngenes}_singletask_${i}/${patient}_ 4 50 ${patient} --lr 1e-6 --window ${window} --model ${model} --pretrain --average --batch 32 --workers 7 --gene_list ${ensg} --norm
done
done
To run the comparison against hand-crafted features:
ngenes=250
window=224
model=rf
for patient in `python3 -m stnet patients`
do
root=output/${model}_${window}/top_${ngenes}/${patient}_
python3 -m stnet run_spatial --gene --logfile ${root}gene.log --epochs 1 --pred_root ${root} --testpatients ${patient} --window ${window} --model ${model} --batch 32 --workers 7 --gene_n ${ngenes} --norm --cpu
done
The main results can be generated by running:
bin/generate_figs.py output/densenet121_224/top_250/ cv
The corresponding results for the comparisons are generated by running:
for i in output/densenet121_224/*; do bin/generate_figs.py $i cv; done
The following blocks of code are used for generating several of the figures.
