HiCONA - Hi-C Organization Network Analysis

Motivation

Any genomic contact map can be seen as an adjacency matrix, and thus a natural representation for a graph. Despite this fact, contact maps are hardly ever analyzed as graphs. Probably the main reasons for this is the difficulty in handling these huge sparse matrices.

HiCONA is a Python package whose aim is to provide the tools to perform network analysis on genomic contact maps. HiCONA provides functionalities for I/O, graph creation and manipulation, plotting and overall a customizable interface which can be used with the provided methods or user-defined ones.

Installation

HiCONA requires Python ≥3.10 and is supported on Linux and macOS only. This is due to the required dependency graph-tool. For the same reason, installation through conda-forge is recommended (the usage of mamba instead of conda is strongly advised for faster dependency solving).

conda create -n hicona_env
conda activate hicona_env
conda install -c conda-forge hicona

Installation through pip is also possible, though an available installation of graph-tool in the environment is required.

pip install hicona

Installation from source (mainly for development purposes) is possible using the provided environment.yaml file.

git clone git@github.com:leomorelli/HiCONA.git hicona
cd hicona
conda env create -f environment.yaml
conda activate hicona_env
