Introduction
------------

An important way to study cortical function *in silico* lies in manipulations that are impossible to perform *in vivo* and *in vitro*. The purpose of the *Connectome-Manipulator* is to provide a general framework to apply and study various types of structural manipulations of a circuit connectome. The framework allows for rapid connectome manipulations of biophysically detailed network models in `SONATA <https://github.com/AllenInstitute/sonata/blob/master/docs/SONATA_DEVELOPER_GUIDE.md>`_ format, the standard for large-scale network models. Manipulations can be targeted to entire models, specific sub-networks, or even single neurons, ranging from insertion or removal of specific motifs to complete rewiring based on stochastic connectivity models at various levels of complexity.
Important use cases include wiring a connectome from scratch in a biologically realistic way based on given features of connectivity, rewiring an existing connectome while preserving certain aspects of connectivity, and transplanting specific connectivity characteristics from one connectome to another. The resulting connectomes can be readily simulated using any simulator supporting SONATA, allowing systematic and reproducible characterization of causal effects of manipulations on network activity.

Install
-------

From `PyPI <https://pypi.org/project/connectome-manipulator>`_
(recommended):

::

   pip install connectome-manipulator

Alternatively, from
`GitHub <https://github.com/BlueBrain/connectome-manipulator>`_:

::

   git clone https://github.com/BlueBrain/connectome-manipulator.git
   cd connectome-manipulator
   pip install .

All dependencies declared in ``setup.py`` and are available from PyPI, including one optional dependency, ``mpi4py`` (v3.1.4), which is required for parallel processing, i.e., to run ``parallel-manipulator``. Another optional dependency, ``parquet-converters`` (v0.8.0 or higher), required for converting .parquet output files to SONATA must be installed separately, see instructions under https://github.com/BlueBrain/parquet-converters.

Recommended Python version: v3.10.8

Framework overview
------------------

Main components
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The *Connectome-Manipulator* framework is illustrated in Figure 1 and
consists of the following main components:

-  | **Connectome manipulator**
   | As specified in the config, applies one or a sequence of manipulations to a given SONATA connectome, and writes the manipulated connectome to a new SONATA edges file. All manipulations are separately implemented in sub-modules and can be easily extended.
   | Details can be found in the corresponding README file in the repository: `connectome_manipulation/README.md <https://github.com/BlueBrain/connectome-manipulator/blob/main/connectome_manipulator/connectome_manipulation/README.md>`_

-  | **Model building**
   | As specified in the config, builds a model from a given connectome and writes the model to a file to be loaded and used by specific manipulations requiring a model (e.g., model-based rewiring based on connection probability model). All models are separately implemented in sub-modules and can be easily extended.
   | Details can be found in the corresponding README file in the repository: `model_building/README.md <https://github.com/BlueBrain/connectome-manipulator/blob/main/connectome_manipulator/model_building/README.md>`_

      Notes:

      -  Some models may not even require a connectome as input.
      -  Some models may depend on other models as input for model
         building.

-  | **Structural comparator**
   | As specified in the config, performs a structural comparison of the original and manipulated connectomes. Different structural parameters to compare (connection probability, synapses per connection, ...) are separately implemented in sub-modules and can be easily extended.
   | Details can be found in the corresponding README file in the repository: `connectome_comparison/README.md <https://github.com/BlueBrain/connectome-manipulator/blob/main/connectome_manipulator/connectome_comparison/README.md>`_

ℹ️ More details can be also found in the accompanying publication (esp.
*Supplementary tables*), see `Citation`_.

**Figure 1:** Schematic overview of the connectome manipulation framework, consisting of the "connectome manipulator", "model building", and "structural comparator" components.

Operation principle of the "connectome manipulator"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

As illustrated in Figure 2, the synapses of the connectome (SONATA edges) are divided into k splits targeting disjoint sets of N post-synaptic neurons (SONATA nodes), which reduces the memory consumption and facilitates parallelization on multiple computation nodes. Each split is an edge table loaded as Pandas dataframe and comprising a list of synapses together with all synapse properties, an example is shown in Figure 3. The manipulations are then applied separately to each edge table in sequence (or alternatively, in parallel), resulting in manipulated edge tables which are then written to separate .parquet files. In the end, all .parquet files are merged into one manipulated SONATA connectome file using ``parquet-converters``.

..

   Notes:

   -  Manipulations can only be applied to a single SONATA edges population at a time.
   -  The synapses in each loaded edge table are assumed to be sorted by post-synaptic neuron ID. Likewise, the manipulated edges tables are to be returned with synapses sorted by post-synaptic neuron ID.
   -  Optionally, processing can be resumed from an earlier (incomplete) run, by re-using all .parquet files that already exist instead of re-computing them.
   -  By default, all .parquet files will be deleted after successfull completion, i.e., after the manipulated SONATA connectome file has been generated. Optionally, these temporary .parquet files can be kept as well.

How to run
----------

::

   Usage: connectome-manipulator [OPTIONS] COMMAND [ARGS]...

     Connectome manipulation tools.

   Options:
     --version      Show the version and exit.
     -v, --verbose  -v for INFO, -vv for DEBUG  [default: 0]
     --help         Show this message and exit.

   Commands:
     build-model            Extract and build models from existing connectomes.

     manipulate-connectome  Manipulate or build a circuit's connectome.

Connectome manipulation or building
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

::

   Usage: connectome-manipulator manipulate-connectome [OPTIONS] CONFIG

     Manipulate or build a circuit's connectome.

   Options:
     --output-dir PATH         Output directory.  [required]
     --profile                 Enable profiling.
     --resume                  Resume from exisiting .parquet files.
     --keep-parquet            Keep temporary parquet files.
     --convert-to-sonata       Convert parquet to sonata and generate circuit
                               config
     --overwrite-edges         Overwrite existing edges file
     --splits INTEGER          Number of blocks, overwrites value in config file
                               [default: 0]
     --target-payload INTEGER  Number of gid-gid pairs to consider for one block.
                               Supersedes splits when a parquet based
                               configuration is used  [default: 20000000000]
     --parallel                Run using a parallel DASK job scheduler
     -a, --parallel-arg TEXT   Overwrite the arguments for the Dask Client with
                               key=value
     --help                    Show this message and exit.

Just running serially you can do something like this:

::

   connectome-manipulator -v manipulate-connectome wiring_config.json \
       --output-dir PATH_TO_OUTPUT --profile --convert-to-sonata --splits 1

Running splits in parallel (with Dask) you can use the ``parallel-manipulator`` executable that will set up Dask automatically (and switch the ``--parallel`` flag by default to ``True``, too):

::

   srun --nodes 10 --tasks-per-node=2 --cpus-per-task=20 --constraint=clx --mem=0 \
       parallel-manipulator -v manipulate-connectome wiring_config.json \
       --output-dir PATH_TO_OUTPUT --profile --convert-to-sonata --splits=100

Please note that this feature will require at least 4 MPI ranks. Dask will use 2 ranks to manage the distributed cluster. We recommend to use a high number for ``--cpus-per-task`` to create Dask workers that will be able to process a lot of data in parallel.

When processing with ``parallel-manipulator``, one may pass the flag ``--target-payload`` to determine how big the individual workload for each process should be. The default value of 20e9 was determined empirically to run on the whole mouse brain with 75 million neurons. We recommend to use this value as a starting point and scale it up or down to achieve the desired runtime characteristics.

     --force-rebuild    Force model re-building, in case already existing.
     --help             Show this message and exit.

[required]\n     --profile                 Enable profiling.\n     --resume                  Resume from exisiting .parquet files.\n     --keep-parquet            Keep temporary parquet files.\n     --convert-to-sonata       Convert parquet to sonata and generate circuit\n                               config\n     --overwrite-edges         Overwrite existing edges file\n     --splits INTEGER          Number of blocks, overwrites value in config file\n                               [default: 0]\n     --target-payload INTEGER  Number of gid-gid pairs to consider for one block.\n                               Supersedes splits when a parquet based\n                               configuration is used  [default: 20000000000]\n     --parallel                Run using a parallel DASK job scheduler\n     -a, --parallel-arg TEXT   Overwrite the arguments for the Dask Client with\n                               key=value\n     --help                    Show this message and exit.\n\nJust running serially you can do something like this:\n\n::\n\n   connectome-manipulator -v manipulate-connectome wiring_config.json \\\n       --output-dir PATH_TO_OUTPUT --profile --convert-to-sonata --splits 1\n\nRunning splits in parallel (with Dask) you can use the ``parallel-manipulator`` executable that will set up Dask automatically (and switch the ``--parallel`` flag by default to ``True``, too):\n\n::\n\n   srun --nodes 10 --tasks-per-node=2 --cpus-per-task=20 --constraint=clx --mem=0 \\\n       parallel-manipulator -v manipulate-connectome wiring_config.json \\\n       --output-dir PATH_TO_OUTPUT --profile --convert-to-sonata --splits=100\n\nPlease note that this feature will require at least 4 MPI ranks. Dask will use 2 ranks to manage the distributed cluster. We recommend to use a high number for ``--cpus-per-task`` to create Dask workers that will be able to process a lot of data in parallel.\n\nWhen processing with ``parallel-manipulator``, one may pass the flag ``--target-payload`` to determine how big the individual workload for each process should be. The default value of 20e9 was determined empirically to run on the whole mouse brain with 75 million neurons. We recommend to use this value as a starting point and scale it up or down to achieve the desired runtime characteristics.\n\nModel building\n~~~~~~~~~~~~~~\n\n::\n\n   Usage: connectome-manipulator build-model [OPTIONS] CONFIG\n\n     Extract and build models from existing connectomes.\n\n   Options:\n     --force-reextract  Force re-extraction of data, in case already existing.\n     --force-rebuild    Force model re-building, in case already existing.\n     --help             Show this message and exit.\n\nStructural comparison\n~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~\n\n::\n\n   Usage: connectome-manipulator compare-connectomes [OPTIONS] CONFIG\n\n     Compare connectome structure of two circuits.\n\n   Options:\n     --force-recomp-circ1  Force re-computation of 1st circuit's comparison data,\n                           in case already existing.\n     --force-recomp-circ2  Force re-computation of 2nd circuit's comparison data,\n                           in case already existing.\n     --help                Show this message and exit.\n\nExamples\n--------\n\nExamples can be found under `examples/ <https://github.com/BlueBrain/connectome-manipulator/tree/main/examples>`_ in the repository.\n\nHow to contribute\n-----------------\n\nContribution guidelines can be found in `CONTRIBUTING.md <https://github.com/BlueBrain/connectome-manipulator/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md>`_ in the repository.\n\nCitation\n--------\n\nIf you use this software, we kindly ask you to cite the following publication:\n\nChristoph Pokorny, Omar Awile, James B.
