General Usage Notes

Description: CirGO (Circular Gene Ontology) is an alternative way of visualising GO terms in 2D space that is suitable for publishing and presenting gene expression Ontology data

Software architecture:
CirGO can be run on Windows, Unix/Linux and Mac OS as:
      (1) Graphical User Interface (GUI)
      (2) Command Line (CMD)
      (3) Interactive Command Line (INT)

Brief Algorithm Description

Briefly, CirGO visualisation algorithm consists of three steps that are described at the Supplementary Material of the CirGO: an alternative circular way of visualising gene ontology terms publication:
      (1) Formatting of the csv input file obtained from the TreeMap tab on REVIGIO page
      (2) Values calculation
      (3) GO visualisation as two-layer full hierarchies

Input Data Format

REVIGIO csv input file

Note: four header lines are omitted

term_ID	description	frequencyInDb	log10pvalue	uniqueness	dispensability	representative
