This is indeed a common problem. An approach we started using recently is splitting the data randomly (stratified by batch and possibly by anatomy annotation), training several models, then merging results.
Is there any specific function you use to merge the data? Or is merging the anndata objects good enough? I'm not sure how I would merge several models, especially for some of the downstream analysis functions.
You can concatenate anndata. There are two important parts to consider - cell abundance in adata.obsm
and all other model parameters (+ essential record about input data) in adata.uns['mod']
. Merging adata.uns['mod']
correctly is going to be more complex but you can save them as different adata.uns
slots.
As a technical note, merging adata.uns['mod']
would require some way to properly combine location-independent parameters - which is straightforward for technical gene-specific effects but can be less straightforward for prior factorisation of cell abundance.

Is there any improvements coming soon in cell2location to take in the full data? That approach of splitting in batches removes any spatial information that might be used to do cell deconvolution
With the new VisiumHD being more proeminent, the number of spots or bins can range anywhere from 150k to 650k+, so when I test with cell2location, I always get memory errors.
And doing in batches also doesn't work:
Any near future implementations to support datasets such as VisiumHD?
Hi, I am using cell2location to deconve large Stereo-seq data. 1, Could you show how to merge the trained mod by splitting spatial data? 2, How much does it affect the results by reducing 30000 (long time in CPU mode) to 300 of max_epochs in training spatial data? Thank you!

Is there any way to manage memory useage on large datasets? For example, when you're approaching ~40000 spots and ~10000 genes, memory use becomes huge. Is there a way to train seperate conditions, and then somehow merge the results? I'm not sure if this would be a simple merge between anndata objects or if it's a more involved process.
