PyBPN Description

PyBPN is a Python module that provides programs to detect connections between biological processes (called "links") based on gene interaction, expression, and annotation data. A collection of significant links and the participating processes forms a biological process network, or BPN.PyBPN provides three related programs for finding BPNs, each with different objectives:bpln Determines if processes are generally connected; an implementation of the algorithm described by Dotan-Cohen et al. .cbpn Determines whether, under a particular comparison of conditions, connections between processes are perturbed; an implementation of the algorithm described by Lasher et al. .mcmcbpn Similar to cbpn, but attempts to discover the smallest set of connections which describes as much of the perturbation of interacting genes as possible.Product's homepage
