GenoGAM (Genome-wide generalized additive models) is a powerful statistical modeling tool for the analysis of ChIP-Seq data with flexible factorial design experiments. However large runtime and memory requirements of its current implementation prohibit its application to gigabase-scale genomes such as mammalian genomes.
Results
Here we present GenoGAM 2.0, a scalable and efficient implementation that is 2 to 3 orders of magnitude faster than the previous version. This is achieved by exploiting the sparsity of the model using the SuperLU direct solver for parameter fitting, and sparse Cholesky factorization together with the sparse inverse subset algorithm for computing standard errors. Furthermore the HDF5 library is employed to store data efficiently on hard drive, reducing memory footprint while keeping I/O low. Whole-genome fits for human ChIP-seq datasets (ca. 300 million parameters) could be obtained in less than 9 hours on a standard 60-core server. GenoGAM 2.0 is implemented as an open source
R
package and currently available on GitHub. A Bioconductor release of the new version is in preparation.
Conclusions
We have vastly improved the performance of the GenoGAM framework, opening up its application to all types of organisms. Moreover, our algorithmic improvements for fitting large GAMs could be of interest to the statistical community beyond the genomics field. |
