# bitage

Binarized whole-organism C. elegans RNA-seq clock that estimates temporally rescaled biological age; the released linear predictor sums coefficients for genes binarized on plus a 103.55-hour intercept.

Model weights retain the original authors' terms; the pyaging software license does not relicense them.
