+
+a python package for converting gene sets to biological pathway embeddings with enrichment analysis attributes.
+
+gene sets (from clusters, niches, studies) are tested against reactome pathways via fisher's exact test, then embedded into a shared vector space using metapath2vec over the pathway hierarchy graph.
+
+enrichment is either fisher's exact (a binary top-N gene set per cluster/niche) or **niche-level AUCell** (the full per-niche expression ranking, no gene-set selection step). AUCell here scores each niche's **aggregated pseudobulk** profile, one score per (niche, pathway); it is **not single-cell AUCell** (the package never sees individual cells, niche construction is upstream). both enrichment sources feed the same reactome hierarchy graph and metapath2vec embedding.

+
+## the network
+
+the `Net` class builds a heterogeneous networkx graph with two node types:
+
+- **pathway nodes** (reactome stIds): the reactome homo sapiens pathway hierarchy
+- **cluster nodes** (your gene lists of interest): added from enrichment results
+
+and two edge types:
+
+- **pathway - pathway**: parent-child relations from the reactome hierarchy
+- **cluster - pathway**: weighted edges from enrichment analysis (1 - fdr or odds ratio). each cluster connects to its significantly enriched pathways.
+
+genes are not in the graph. they are used upstream in the enrichment step to determine which pathways are significant, but only pathways and clusters appear as nodes.
+
+pathway node attributes:
+
+- `node_type`: "sig" or "notsig" (fdr < 0.05)
+- `het`: 1 (sig), 0 (notsig), or -1 (not in enrichment results)
+- `feature`: fdr value (raw)
+- `features`: [1 - fdr] (inverted, used as weight)
+- `stId`: reactome stable identifier
+- `pathway_name`: human-readable name
+- `parent_pathway`: top-level reactome category
+
+cluster node attributes:
+
+- `node_type`: "cluster"
+- `cluster`: cluster name
+
+cluster-pathway edge attributes:
+
+- `weight`: enrichment score (1 - fdr or odds ratio)
+
+the graph can be filtered by pathway level (high/mid/low) and by gene membership before construction. set `digraph=True` for a directed graph, `induce=True` to keep only significant pathways.
+
+## the embeddings
+
+metapath2vec performs biased random walks on the network, then trains a skipgram model to learn a dense vector for every node.
+
+the walks are type-aware: metapaths like `[sig, notsig, sig]` or `[cluster, sig, sig]` guide the walker to follow specific node-type sequences. edge weights from the enrichment analysis bias which neighbors get visited, so clusters with strong signal to specific pathways walk there more often.
+
+the result is a shared embedding space where:
+
+- **pathway embeddings** (`pathway x dim`) capture where each pathway sits in the reactome hierarchy and how it relates to other pathways through enrichment patterns. pathways that are structurally close in reactome or co-enriched across clusters end up with similar vectors.
+- **cluster embeddings** (`cluster x dim`) capture each cluster's biological function as a position in pathway space. two clusters with similar pathway enrichment profiles end up close together, but unlike the raw EA matrix, the embedding also encodes the hierarchical relationships between their enriched pathways. a cluster enriched in "FGFR2 alternative splicing" and one enriched in "signaling by FGFR" will be closer than two clusters enriched in unrelated pathways, even if neither shares the exact same significant pathway.
+- **EA matrix** (`cluster x pathway`) is the interpretable complement to the embeddings. each row is a cluster's pathway activity profile with explicit scores (1 - fdr or odds ratio). it serves as ground truth for what the embeddings encode and can be used directly for comparison across studies via cosine similarity.
+
+## outputs
+
+- **EA matrix** (`cluster x pathway`): enrichment weights per cluster, available as 1 - fdr or odds ratio
+- **cluster embeddings** (`cluster x dim`): one dense vector per cluster encoding pathway activity + graph structure
+- **pathway embeddings** (`pathway x dim`): one dense vector per pathway encoding hierarchical position + enrichment context

+## embedding methods
+
+| method | input | training | edge weights | deterministic |
+|--------|-------|----------|-------------|---------------|
+| metapath2vec | graph | skipgram on random walks | yes (biases walks) | no |
+| svd | ea matrix | truncated svd | n/a (no graph) | yes |
+| spectral | graph | laplacian eigenmaps | yes | yes |
+| line | graph | first + second order proximity | yes (samples proportional) | no |
+| vae | ea matrix | variational autoencoder | n/a (no graph) | no |
+
+- **metapath2vec**: best for capturing heterogeneous graph structure (pathway hierarchy + cluster nodes). requires training.
+- **svd**: baseline. operates on the ea matrix directly, no graph structure. fast, deterministic. if svd gives the same results as metapath2vec, the graph isn't adding signal.
+- **spectral**: deterministic embedding from the graph laplacian. good comparison point for metapath2vec without training variance.
+- **line**: handles edge weights more explicitly than metapath2vec. two objectives capture both local (direct neighbors) and global (shared neighbor) structure.
+- **vae**: variational autoencoder on the ea matrix. smooth latent space where similar pathway profiles map nearby. provides uncertainty estimates (latent variance per cluster) and can generate new pathway activity profiles. nonlinear alternative to svd.
+
+all methods are more configurable from python than the cli. for example, vae exposes `beta` (kl divergence weight), `hidden_dim`, and the full model for downstream use:
+
+```python
+from gpath2vec.embedder import VAEEmbedder
+
+vae = VAEEmbedder(ea_matrix, dimensions=512, beta=0.5, hidden_dim=256)
+embeddings = vae.get_embeddings()       # latent means
+uncertainty = vae.get_uncertainty()      # latent variance per cluster
+```
+
+## pathway levels
+
+pathway filtering uses reactome's own classification:
+
+- **high**: pathways with enhanced high level diagrams (ehld)
+- **mid**: pathways between ehld and sbgn
+- **low**: pathways with sbgn diagrams (most specific)
+- **all**: no filtering
+
+## gene filtering
+
+restrict the pathway universe to only pathways containing specific genes of interest (ex. transcription factors from pathway commons):
+
+```python
+# TF genes from pathway commons SIF (controls-expression-of)
+ea_df = enrich(gene_sets, level="low", gene_filter=tf_genes)
+```
+
+## local caching
+
+reactome data is downloaded once and cached to `~/.gpath2vec/cache/`. set `GPATH2VEC_REACTOME_DIR` to use a custom cache directory:
+
+```bash
+export GPATH2VEC_REACTOME_DIR=/path/to/reactome/files
+```
+
+### offline / hpc (air-gapped compute nodes)
+
+clusters like ARC have no internet on compute nodes, so the cache must be staged from a node that does have internet (ex. a login node):
+
+```bash
+./pull_reactome_cache.sh /shared/path/reactome_cache   # run where there IS internet
+```
+
+this drives the package's real fetchers, so the cache matches exactly what gpath2vec expects. on the compute node, point at it without re-downloading:
+
+```bash
+gpath2vec niche-pipeline ... --reactome-dir /shared/path/reactome_cache
+# or: export GPATH2VEC_REACTOME_DIR=/shared/path/reactome_cache
+```
+
+## reproducibility
+
+all stochastic embedders (metapath2vec, line, vae) take a `seed` (default 1234) that pins the python, numpy and torch rngs, so embeddings are bit-reproducible run to run. the seed is re-applied before training (independent of walk-generation rng) and recorded in `run_provenance.json`. svd and spectral are deterministic by construction. cli: `--seed`.

+## embedding methods
+
+| method | input | training | edge weights | deterministic |
+|--------|-------|----------|-------------|---------------|
+| metapath2vec | graph | skipgram on random walks | yes (biases walks) | no |
+| svd | ea matrix | truncated svd | n/a (no graph) | yes |
+| spectral | graph | laplacian eigenmaps | yes | yes |
+| line | graph | first + second order proximity | yes (samples proportional) | no |
+| vae | ea matrix | variational autoencoder | n/a (no graph) | no |
+
+- **metapath2vec**: best for capturing heterogeneous graph structure (pathway hierarchy + cluster nodes). requires training.
+- **svd**: baseline. operates on the ea matrix directly, no graph structure. fast, deterministic. if svd gives the same results as metapath2vec, the graph isn't adding signal.
+- **spectral**: deterministic embedding from the graph laplacian. good comparison point for metapath2vec without training variance.
+- **line**: handles edge weights more explicitly than metapath2vec. two objectives capture both local (direct neighbors) and global (shared neighbor) structure.
+- **vae**: variational autoencoder on the ea matrix. smooth latent space where similar pathway profiles map nearby. provides uncertainty estimates (latent variance per cluster) and can generate new pathway activity profiles. nonlinear alternative to svd.
+
+all methods are more configurable from python than the cli. for example, vae exposes `beta` (kl divergence weight), `hidden_dim`, and the full model for downstream use:
+
+```python
+from gpath2vec.embedder import VAEEmbedder
+
+vae = VAEEmbedder(ea_matrix, dimensions=512, beta=0.5, hidden_dim=256)
+embeddings = vae.get_embeddings()       # latent means
+uncertainty = vae.get_uncertainty()      # latent variance per cluster
+```
+
+## pathway levels
+
+pathway filtering uses reactome's own classification:
+
+- **high**: pathways with enhanced high level diagrams (ehld)
+- **mid**: pathways between ehld and sbgn
+- **low**: pathways with sbgn diagrams (most specific)
+- **all**: no filtering
+
+## gene filtering
+
+restrict the pathway universe to only pathways containing specific genes of interest (ex. transcription factors from pathway commons):
+
+```python
+# TF genes from pathway commons SIF (controls-expression-of)
+ea_df = enrich(gene_sets, level="low", gene_filter=tf_genes)
+```
+
+## local caching
+
+reactome data is downloaded once and cached to `~/.gpath2vec/cache/`. set `GPATH2VEC_REACTOME_DIR` to use a custom cache directory:
+
+```bash
+export GPATH2VEC_REACTOME_DIR=/path/to/reactome/files
+```
+
+### offline / hpc (air-gapped compute nodes)
+
+clusters like ARC have no internet on compute nodes, so the cache must be staged from a node that does have internet (ex. a login node):
+
+```bash
+./pull_reactome_cache.sh /shared/path/reactome_cache   # run where there IS internet
+```
+
+this drives the package's real fetchers, so the cache matches exactly what gpath2vec expects. on the compute node, point at it without re-downloading:
+
+```bash
+gpath2vec niche-pipeline ... --reactome-dir /shared/path/reactome_cache
+# or: export GPATH2VEC_REACTOME_DIR=/shared/path/reactome_cache
+```
+
+## reproducibility
+
+all stochastic embedders (metapath2vec, line, vae) take a `seed` (default 1234) that pins the python, numpy and torch rngs, so embeddings are bit-reproducible run to run. the seed is re-applied before training (independent of walk-generation rng) and recorded in `run_provenance.json`. svd and spectral are deterministic by construction. cli: `--seed`.
