pyaging data

This public repository contains the model weights and data files used by lucascamillomd/pyaging.

Contents

• Root-level *.pt files are the current pyaging clock models.
• all_clock_metadata.pt is the live aggregate clock catalog.
• Root-level example files support the pyaging tutorials.
• supporting_files/ contains dependencies used to construct or document clocks.

Files used by the Python package are intentionally stored at the repository root and downloaded through the standard Hugging Face cache. The main branch is the live data release and may change independently of the Python package version.

Harmonized clock metadata

The clock catalogue uses controlled, multi-valued metadata so clocks can be filtered consistently:

• tissue records the biological material used to develop or train the model.
• platform records the measurement platform used for model development.
• predicts describes how to interpret the value returned by the packaged model.
• training_target records the outcome used to fit or derive the model.
• unit records the physical or statistical unit of the returned, postprocessed value.

Each of these fields is an array of controlled terms, even when a clock has only one value. Precise wording from the paper, supplement, implementation, or author communication is retained in the notebooks' same-line metadata comments and in the field-level evidence ledger. The canonical clock_metadata.json registry and evidence_ledger.jsonl are maintained in the pyaging repository.

Licensing and provenance

This is a mixed-provenance research collection, so the repository license is other. The pyaging BSD license does not grant additional rights to third-party clock weights or source datasets. Consult each clock's embedded metadata, cited publication, and notes before use. Some clocks are marked research-only or have separate commercial terms.

Security

Clock files are trusted Python/PyTorch objects loaded by pyaging with torch.load(..., weights_only=False). Loading a malicious pickle can execute code. Only load these files from this official repository and review unexpected repository changes.

Publishing policy

The repository is maintained solely by Lucas Paulo de Lima Camillo (lucascamillomd). Weights are uploaded before aggregate metadata so the catalog never advertises a missing clock file. Public users need no Hugging Face token to download files.
