read_computage_bench

read_computage_bench(dataset, *, root=None, conditions=None, prepare=True)

One ComputAgeBench study, ready to score.

Parameters

Name	Type	Description	Default
dataset	str	A GEO series accession, e.g. "GSE182991". See :func:list_computage_bench.	required
root	str | None	A local directory holding the parquets and the metadata TSV. None downloads into the ordinary FALCONAge cache.	None
conditions	Sequence[str] | None	Keep only these values of condition. The control label in this corpus is "HC".	None
prepare	bool	Run :func:falconage.prepare, which collapses EPIC v2 replicate suffixes and declares the platform. Left on by default because a v2 matrix without that step overlaps almost nothing.	True

Notes

Stored float32 is widened to float64 here. Not because it recovers the lost bits – it does not – but because everything downstream computes in double and a silent upcast partway through a chain is harder to reason about than one at the door.
