GSearch stands for genomic search.
This package (currently in development) compute MinHash-like signatures of bacteria and archaea (or virus and fungi) genomes and stores the id of bacteria and MinHash-like signatures in a Hnsw structure for searching of new request genomes. A total of ~50,000 to ~60,000 lines of highly optimized Rust code were provided in this repo and several other crates/libraries develped for this repo, such as kmerutils, probminhash, hnswlib-rs and annembed, see below for details. Some of the libraries are very popular and have been used about 20 thousand times, see here.
This package is developped by Jean-Pierre Both jpboth for the software part and Jianshu Zhao for the genomics part. We also created a mirror of this repo on GitLab and Gitee (You need to log in first to see the content), just in case Github service is not available in some region.

The objective is to use the Jaccard index as an accurate proxy of mutation rate or Average Nucleitide Identity(ANI) or Average Amino Acide Identity (AAI) According to equation (Poisson model or Binomial model):
or
where J is Jaccard-like index (e.g. Jp from ProbMinHash or J from SuperMinHash, SetSketch or Densified MinHash, a class of locality sensitive hashing algorithms, suitable for nearest neighbor search, see below) and k is k-mer size. To achieve this we use sketching. We generate kmers along genome DNA or amino acid sequences and sketch the kmer distribution encountered (weighted or not) in a file, see kmerutils. Then final sketch is stored in a Hnsw database See here hnsw or here hnsw.
The sketching and HNSW graph database building is done by the subcommand tohnsw.
The Jaccard index come in 2 flavours:
1. The probability Jaccard index that takes into account the Kmer multiplicity. It is defined by :
The above mentioned choices for sketching can be specified in "gsearch tohnsw" subcommand via the --algo option (prob, super/super2, hll and optdens). We suggest using either ProbMinHash or Optimal Densification. For SuperMinhash, 2 implementations are available: super is for floating point type sketch while super2 is for integer type sketch. The later is much faster than the former. hll is for SetSketch, we name it hll because the SetSketch data structure can be seen as a similar implementation of HyperLogLog, but adding new algorithms for similarity estimation (e.g., Locality Sensitivity, LSH or Joint Maximum Likelihood Estimation, JMLE for Jaccard index) in additional to distinct element counting. Also becasuse we think HyperLogLog is a beautiful name, which describes the key steps of the implementation.
The estimated Jaccard-like index is used to build HNSW graph database, which is implemented in crate hnswlib-rs.
The sketching of reference genomes and HNSW graph database building can take some time (less than 0.5 hours for ~65,000 bacterial genomes of GTDB for parameters giving a correct quality of sketching, or 2 to 3 hours for entire NCBI/RefSeq prokaryotic genomes. ~318K). Result is stored in 2 structures:
- A Hnsw structure storing rank of data processed and corresponding sketches.
- A Dictionary associating each rank to a fasta id and fasta filename.
The Hnsw structure is dumped in hnswdump.hnsw.graph and hnswdump.hnsw.data The Dictionary is dumped in a json file seqdict.json

Query_Name is your query genomes, Distance is genomic Jaccard distance (1-J/Jp), Neighbor_Fasta_name is the nearest neighbors based on the genomic Jaccard distance, ranked by distance. ANI is calculated from genomic Jaccard distance according the equaiton above between you query genome and nearest database genomes.
We also provide scripts for analyzing output from request and compare with other ANI based methods here: https://github.com/jianshu93/gsearch_analysis
Additional ANI calculation (if you do not want to use MinHash estimated ANI) for the query genomes and nearest neighbor genomes can be performed via the program superani:

For UMAP-like algorithm to perform dimension reduction and then visuzlizing genome database, we run it after the tohnsw step (pre-built database) (see below useage ann section). See annembed crate for details. Then the output of this step can be visualized, for example for the GTDB v207 we have the following plot. See paper here.
We provide a bunch of scripts to allow split database genomes into N pieces and build HNSW graph database for each piece, then run search of new genomes against those pieces and collect results. This will only requires 1/N memory for your machine at the cost of additional sketching for the same query genomes.
### for a folder with genomes in it, we can split it into N subfolders randomly by running:
./scripts/split_folder.sh input_folder_path output_folder_path 3
### using the output from above split_folder.sh step, build database for each subfolder
./scripts/multiple_build.sh output_folder_path gsearch_db_folder
### using output from above multiple_build.sh step, search new genomes againt each database
./scripts/multiple_search.sh gsearch_db_folder_output new_genome_folder_path outputFor real world datasets with billions of genomes, in additional to the random split idea mentioned above, approximate clustering via CoreSet can be used via the hnswcore command:

### When there are new genomes after comparing with the current database (GTDB v207, e.g. ANI < 95% with any genome after searcing, corresponding to >0.875 ProbMinHash distance), those genomes can be added to the database
### old .graph,.data and all .json files will be updated to the new one. Then the new one can be used for requesting as an updated database

cd ./GTDB/prot
gsearch ann -b ./k7_s12000_n128_ef1600_gsearch --stats --embedgsearch.neighbors.txt is the default output file in your current directory.
For each of your genome in the query_dir, there will be requested N nearest genomes found and sorted by distance (smallest to largest) or ANI (largest to smallest). If one genome in the query does not exist in the output file, meaning at this level (nt or aa), there is no such nearest genomes in the database (or distant away from the best hit in the database), you may then go to amino acid level or universal gene level.

hnsw_rs relies on the crate simdeez to accelerate distance computation. On intel you can build hnsw_rs with the feature simdeez_f
-
annembed relies on openblas so you must choose between the features "annembed_openblas-static" , "annembed_openblas-system" or "annembed_intel-mkl". You may need to install gcc, gfortran and make. This can be done using the --features option as explained below, or by modifying the features section in Cargo.toml. In that case just fill in the default you want.
-
kmerutils provides a feature "withzmq". This feature can be used to store compressed qualities on a server and run requests. It is not necessary in this crate.
curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh- simple installation, with annembed enabled would be with intel-mkl
cargo install gsearch --features="annembed_intel-mkl"or with a system installed openblas:
cargo install gsearch --features="annembed_openblas-system"- On MacOS, which requires dynamic library link (you have to install openblas first):
(note that openblas install lib path is different on M1 MACs).
So you need to run:
brew install openblas

echo 'export CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/opt/openblas/include"' >> ~/.bash_profile
echo 'export PKG_CONFIG_PATH="/usr/local/opt/openblas/lib/pkgconfig"' >> ~/.bash_profile
source ~/.bash_profile
cargo install gsearch --features="annembed_openblas-system"- direct installation from github:

We provide pre-built genome/proteome database graph file for bacteria/archaea, virus and fungi. Proteome database are based on genes for each genome, predicted by FragGeneScanRs (https://gitlab.com/Jianshu_Zhao/fraggenescanrs) for bacteria/archaea/virus and GeneMark-ES version 2 (http://exon.gatech.edu/GeneMark/license_download.cgi) for fungi.
- Bacteria/archaea genomes are the newest version of GTDB database (v207, 67,503genomes) (https://gtdb.ecogenomic.org), which defines a bacterial speces at 95% ANI. Note that GSearch can also run for even higher resolution species database such as 99% ANI.
- Bacteria/archaea genomes from NCBI/RefSeq until Jan. 2023 (~318,000 genomes)(https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/refseq/about/prokaryotes/), no clustering at a given ANI threshold.
- Virus data base are based on the JGI IMG/VR database newest version (https://genome.jgi.doe.gov/portal/IMG_VR/IMG_VR.home.html), which also define a virus OTU (vOTU) at 95% ANI.
- Fungi database are based on the entire RefSeq fungal genomes (retrived via the MycoCosm website), we dereplicated and define a fungal speices at 99.5% ANI.
- All four pre-built databases are available here:http://enve-omics.ce.gatech.edu/data/gsearch or at FigShare, see the download links here
1.C-MinHash, One Permutation Hashing with Circular Permutation (Li and Li 2022 ICML), the best MinHash in terms of accuracy, which has a significant improvement for RMSE than any other MinHash-like ones. Using a circular permutation for empty bins in the sketch vector generated from OPH, so that the empty bins can have hash values borrowed from other non-empty bins with some randomness, not just copy from the nearest non-empty bins as in the densified MinHash scheme. However, the circular permutation vector can be large for large D with a regular K (MinHash K) and it has to be circularly shifted K times and applied K times, which might consume a large amount of memory. For microbial genomes, with D often 10^7 or so and K 10^4 to 10^5 to have 99% ANI accuracy, the permutation vector is not a problem.
2. UltraLogLog(Ertl 2023) and ExaLogLog (Ertl 2024), a significant improvement over HyperLogLog for space/memory for cardinality estimation. We can use inclusion and exclusion rule to estimate Jaccard index after obtaining cardinality of two sets despite large variance. A simple but efficient new estimator of cardinality estimation, FGRA (Further Generalized Remaining Area) based on Tau-GRA (Wang and Pettie, 2023) can be used. But we can also map UltraLogLog to corresponding HyperLogLog to use maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) for cardinality (slower), or joint maximum likelihood estimator (JMLE) for intersecion cardinality (then Jaccard index), which are slightly more accurate than FGRA and meet the Cramér-Rao lower bound. The ExaLogLog estimator is also MLE based but it is not so fast despite smaller space requirement. However, the Hyperloglog-like scheme is not under the locality sensitive hashing scheme and the RMSE is much larger than MinHash-like ones.
3. For extremely large genome databases, e.g. 10^9 or more genomes, the size of sketches and HNSW graph size increase linearly, which creates a challenge for memory to store/load such big files. However, it is possible/easy to sketch and build HNSW graph only for a small piece of the large genome database and create several small sketch files and HNSW graph files for searching. We can search those several small pieces one by one, then collect search results(nearest neighbors) and sorting them accoridng to the Jaccard distance. This is algorithmically equal (for both accuracy and running time) to sketching and building HNSW graph for the entire large database but requires only a small piece of memory. But how to choose the small piece so that it is computationlly efficient? Coreset algorithm, if implemented in a streaming fashion, can be used to cluster similar genomes into clusters, in a way similar to that of k-medoid but significantly more computationally efficient, see coreset crate here. We will definitely implement the idea in the near future. For now, it easy to just mannually split the large database into small pieces, similar to the real-world industrial-level application of this idea for graph-based NNS library here
