GLM-Tang Task 2: GM12878 ChIP-seq Binding
This dataset contains ten binary transcription-factor binding tasks from Task 2 of Tang et al. Given an exact 200 nt sequence from GM12878, predict whether it is centered on a factor-specific ChIP-seq peak or a matched DNase-accessible negative.
Each transcription factor is an independent task identified by factor.
Loading
from datasets import load_dataset
dataset = load_dataset("Taykhoom/chip-seq-glm-tang", "corrected")
ctcf_train = dataset["train"].filter(lambda row: row["factor"] == "CTCF")
ctcf_test = dataset["test"].filter(lambda row: row["factor"] == "CTCF")Archive dataset size
The archive config contains exactly 187,308 positive and 187,308 negative rows with the distributed partitions unchanged.
Use corrected for scientific evaluation. It excludes 752 negative rows whose 200-nt interval overlaps a factor-specific positive source peak by at least one base, then assigns interval-connected components wholly to one split per factor. It contains 373,864 rows: 261,705 train, 37,385 validation, and 74,774 test. Contaminated negatives are excluded, never relabeled. The one-base threshold is deliberate: any shared genomic base duplicates input content, and transitive overlaps remain in the same component.
Factors:
ATF2, Arid3, BACH1, CTCF, ELK1, GABPA, MAX, REST, SRF, ZNF24Arid3 is the archived filename label for the ARID3A experiment.
Task construction
- Positive rows are 200 nt windows centered on the corresponding factor-specific GM12878 ChIP-seq peak.
- Negative rows are 200 nt windows centered on GM12878 DNase hotspots.
- The source study downsampled negatives to balance the classes.
- The archive supplies 70/10/20 train/validation/test partitions.
Every row is tied to the exact published source BED:
- ten factor peak files from Majdandzic Supplementary Table S1;
- GM12878 DNase file
ENCFF235KUDfor negatives.
The selected source peak accession, source BED line, original peak interval, and number of matching source candidates are retained.
Sequence and target contract
sequence is always the exact archived 200 nt benchmark input decoded from the HDF5 one-hot array. It is never replaced by an assembly-normalized sequence.
label is:
1 = factor-specific ChIP-seq peak
0 = GM12878 DNase hotspot negativeThe released models use binary cross-entropy and report accuracy, AUROC, and AUPR independently for each factor.
Columns
All source-BED candidates, including ambiguous alternatives, are retained in the processing release's coordinate-recovery sidecar. That intermediate distinguishes the original 200-nt hg19 source window (source_window_start/end) from the two-base source center anchor (source_center_start/end) and its lifted hg38 anchor (liftover_start/end). The dataset columns above remain the final 200-nt source and hg38 windows.
hg38 annotation
The hg38 fields are optional annotations, not benchmark replacements.
- 374,586 rows have a strict unique source-center liftover.
- 30 rows remain unresolved and have null hg38 fields.
- 1,374 mapped rows differ between hg19 benchmark input and hg38 derivative.
- Those rows require 3,743 total edit operations; the maximum is 50.
Archive and corrected splits
The archive split has 1,651 interval-connected components spanning partitions, affecting 3,384 rows. Exact-sequence grouping alone detects only 272 affected rows. The corrected config uses the stronger interval components and has zero cross-split source-interval overlap.
The associated one-hot evaluator must transpose GradientCorrection arrays from (rows, 4, 200) to (rows, 200, 4) exactly once before Conv1D. Corrected evaluator outputs identify this protocol explicitly; legacy metrics without that marker used ambiguous orientation.
