Gene Set Data Analysis Enrichment Statistical Tests

A collection of statistical tests for the enrichment analysis of gene data sets. Main methods are located under "elib/core".

The end goal is to connect these methods with an online tool for quick and easy enrichment analysis of gene fold data. Functions are optimized for efficiency leveraging python's multiprocessing library.

Since I like pretty pictures:

Getting Started

These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes.

Installation

Project is pip installable via the github link

Example Usage

  enrichment_test = EnrichmentTest(name, GMT_list, MAT_list, clusters, permutations,  alpha, output, weight, cpu_count);
  enrichment_test.run()

Or run it in a CLI with:

  python enrichment_tests.py -n name -a GMT_list -e MAT_list -c clusters -p permutations -r alpha -o output -w weight -i cpu_count

Statistical methods included:

Overrepresentation analysis tests:
* Fisher exact
* Binomial
* Chi squared
* Hypergeometric

Data inputs:
* Gene annotations (.gmt)
* Gene set sample (.gmt)
* Optional background genes (.txt)

Enrichment analysis tests:
* Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA)
* Parametric Analysis of Geneset Expression (PAGE)
* Wilcoxon ranksum test

Data inputs:
* Gene annotations (.gmt)
* Expression list (.mat)

For each method, provide the name of the method to the EnrichmentTest constructor (or OverrepTest):
--Overrep--
-fisher_exact
-chi_squared
-binomial
-hypergeometric

--Enrichment--
-gsea
-wilcoxon
-page
