Single-cell Variational Inference
- Free software: MIT license
- Documentation: https://scvi.readthedocs.io.
- Install Python 3.6 or later. We typically use the Miniconda Python distribution.
- Install PyTorch. If you have an Nvidia GPU, be sure to install a version of PyTorch that supports it -- scVI runs much faster with a discrete GPU.
- Install scVI through conda (
conda install scvi -c bioconda
) or through pip (pip install scvi
). Alternatively, you may download or clone this repository and runpython setup.py install
. - Follow along with our Jupyter notebooks to quickly get familiar with scVI!
